He has even practiced his Haki, and you say this is Naruto?

If Madara still thinks that his will will succumb to him, he will never be able to take this step in his life.

But now Madara not only does not allow his "will" to succumb to himself, but also does not allow anyone in the future to be so incompetent that he cannot even inherit Shanks' beliefs and dreams.

Of course, Madara himself did not realize this.

What he wants is never to surrender, but an opponent.

This is the qualification of becoming a king.

"Shanks, let's make a bet!"

Standing at the door, Madara turned his back to Shanks and said.

"Your dream is to create a new era, right?"

"I will do it."

Shanks smiled, he was sure that he could do it.

"I believe you, so do I. Let's bet everything on the future. I also want to see, in your so-called new era, whether you can find someone to inherit your beliefs and dreams."

After Madara finished speaking, he walked back to the room.

Unconsciously, he also changed.

Belief...

"Who can inherit my belief and do what I can do? Hehe.

If Black Zetsu is not the incarnation of my will, then there are too many things to check, such as Izuna's death and everything that happened in the past few decades."

"I don't have the courage of Shanks. If there is anyone who can fight against me, it can only be the immortals of the three holy places."

This is the only thing that Madara can think of.

He has no time. How can Madara not be angry after being played by Black Zetsu?

If he can, he will naturally take revenge by himself, but...

"Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei, summoning technique!"

The next moment, accompanied by a burst of smoke, a cat appeared in front of Madara.

"Are you a member of the Uchiha clan? If you have any problems, just go to Hina. Meow!"

An old cat appeared in front of Madara.

The old cat looked at the old man in front of him.

It looks a bit familiar, but I can't remember who it is. Well, judging from his appearance, he should be a member of the Uchiha clan.

"You are..."

"Uchiha... Madara."

"Meow!!!"

Hearing this name, the old cat's fur exploded instantly.

Then he fainted.

He must have not woken up yet, how could he dream of this person.

However, when he woke up after sleeping for ten minutes, the scene in front of him had not changed.

"I need your help with something, which involves the death of Izuna, the first generation Hokage and many things in the Warring States period."

"I don't have much time, I need you to go to the three holy places and find one of the sages to trade with them."

Madara's voice could not be refused. The old cat was sweating on his forehead. How could he let this old thing do such an important thing?

Is the place where he can go to the three holy places?

Chapter 23 Historical Text

Otogakure Village, the hiding place of Orochimaru.

"The old woman actually wants to get rid of me with an ordinary sage mode? I don't want this kind of useless thing."

Orochimaru is not mentally ill.

The White Snake Sage asked him for something, so he must have something to ask of him.

Would it be a small matter for the White Snake Sage to speak in person? Impossible, this kind of thing is likely to involve the three holy places.

It can even be said that it affects the entire ninja world.

As a result, the old woman didn't tell him anything, but just said a bunch of unclear things.

What about the New World, the Grand Line, the Devil Fruit, and things like Armament Haki, Conqueror Haki and so on.

He is Orochimaru, he is not the Six Paths Sage, how can he know what those things are by a few names?

And more importantly, Orochimaru knows that this matter is very dangerous. If there is no sufficient benefit, he will not touch such a thing.

The sincerity of the White Snake Sage is obviously not enough.

He, Orochimaru, wants the Dragon Transformation Sage Art, not the White Snake Sage Art, and the result is that they parted unhappily. The White Snake Sage also has a temper.

What's more, Dragon Transformation Sage Art? The White Snake Sage has not mastered this kind of thing. It is completely a legendary secret art. How can he give something that does not exist to Orochimaru.

However, Orochimaru can be sure that there is really this thing in the Ryuchi Cave.

His research direction of the Sage Mode is also the direction of Dragon Transformation, not the real Sage Mode of the White Snake Sage.

"How could the Uzumaki clan have such ability? The old woman has hidden so many things from me.

It's not easy for me to appear in the ninja world now, otherwise I can go directly to Shanks, which is more convenient."

Orochimaru thought to himself, although the White Snake Sage didn't tell him too much, but at least told him the source of these news.

Wouldn't it be more convenient if he directly found Shanks to cooperate?

"But if this is really the case, then the power of Karin really needs to be studied carefully. Although Kagura's heart eye and observation Haki are similar, it is obviously not observation Haki."

Orochimaru is a very pragmatic action-oriented person. Although the cooperation with the White Snake Sage was blown, Orochimaru has started his own research based on the few pieces of information.

At this time, Karin was still in the Kusagakure Village, and she had never even seen Orochimaru.

But in the past few months, Karin's strength has been rising rapidly, and Orochimaru is the mastermind behind all this.

But it's not enough. Karin has made rapid progress, but there is also a pervert named Shanks in the Uzumaki clan.

Karin's months of life and death training are not even as good as Shanks' progress in a week.

Sometimes the gap between people is like this.

"Next year's Chuunin Exams are an opportunity to bring Shanks and Shanks into contact if Shanks appears in Konoha."

Orochimaru could only postpone his plans until next year.

He also knew what situation he was in now. If he really went out, he would be in trouble if he was caught by the Akatsuki group.

When he thought of the Akatsuki organization, Orochimaru's already gloomy eyes became even gloomier.

Due to lack of funds, his underground laboratory was kept as simple as possible. He did not even dare to use too much electricity and could only use it in key places.

In addition, there are more things that need to be done now, Orochimaru is not only worried about money, but also afraid that he will be caught along the flow of funds.

After all, that guy from Kakuzu is very sensitive to money.

But just as Orochimaru was internally complaining about what happened during this period, he suddenly felt a familiar force.

A white snake appeared behind Orochimaru, followed by an old cat.

"Oh? Did the White Snake Immortal agree to my previous deal?"

Orochimaru's expression returned to that of Furui Muha, and he did not pay attention to the ninja cat next to him.

“It’s true that we don’t have the secret technique of transforming into a dragon, but Immortal White Snake put some things in the scroll that have been dusted by history.

In addition, the Uchiha clan seems to be related to this matter. Our three major holy places agreed to the Uchiha clan. "

As White Snake spoke, he handed the scroll on his tail to Orochimaru. He just came to pass a message.

After saying that, the white snake returned to Longdi Cave through spiritualism.

"Uchiha clan? You were able to get the three holy places to agree."

Orochimaru's gaze was profound. Not only was the Uchiha clan one step ahead, but besides Sasuke and Itachi, there were actually other members of the Uchiha clan.

"Is there anyone else in the Uchiha clan? Those two little guys are not qualified enough to be able to let Ninja Cat deliver messages."

"Of course he is a big shot in the Uchiha clan. You don't have to worry about that."

The old cat replied.

"We have been in contact with Shanks, and we can share some training information about Haki with you. In addition, there is more information about Shanks."

"not enough."

Orochimaru shook his head.

"What about the organization of the sacred tree?"

"Sacred tree?"

Orochimaru was puzzled.

But along with the old cat's gaze, Orochimaru also turned his attention to the scroll given to him by the White Snake Sage.

He opened the scroll and took a look.

There is only a simple written record on it, an ancient text, and the text above is not from this era at all.

But Orochimaru understood.

This is a period of history, the history of the Six Paths Immortal Era!

The sacred tree that fell from the sky, the fruit that grew from the sacred tree, the origin of the ninja sect.

A few sentences, two to three hundred words of content.

But what was revealed in this period of history shocked Orochimaru so much that he was speechless for a long time.

Then, Orochimaru went through it in his mind.

The most important information - the sacred tree - was directly locked.

The fruit of the sacred tree and the devil fruit?

If you want to do all this, the sacred tree is a must.

"There is actually such a person in the Uchiha clan. Did that guy already know that I would agree?"

Orochimaru felt like he was being plotted.

It's not a feeling, it's just being calculated.

And when faced with a calculation, he couldn't resist, he couldn't refuse.

"What's that person's name?"

Orochimaru said coldly.

"Izuna, Lord Uchiha Izuna."

"Uchiha Izuna? The rumored Uchiha Madara's brother, the Izuna who died at the hands of Senju Tobirama?"

Orochimaru was stunned.

Uchiha Izuna? This is a very strange name, a name that has been lost in history.

Almost no one will remember this man because he is long dead.

But now I think about it, how could one of the powerful men who could lead the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan in that era die so easily.

Suspended death is the only possibility.

And being able to let these ninja cats out, only Quan Na's identity has this qualification.

"So what does he want me to do?"

"Investigating the affairs between the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan during the Warring States Period.
