If you don't want to unify the ninja world, why are you crying about the ninja village system?

However, just as this chakra touched the roots of the sacred tree, the entire dream maze suddenly shook violently, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting apart, and the surrounding scenery began to become blurred and distorted.

Everyone's heart tightened involuntarily, knowing that this operation had entered the most critical and dangerous moment.

At that crucial moment when they were about to succeed, suddenly, a surging and extremely dark force gushed out from the depths of the sacred tree like a flood that broke through a dam, and with the power to destroy the world, it rushed straight towards them, attempting to completely disperse the chakra they had condensed.

Faced with this sudden change, Mingren gritted his teeth and veins bulged on his forehead. He knew very well that he could not retreat at this moment, otherwise all his previous efforts would be wasted.

He just roared, and all the cells in his body seemed to be ignited, continuously bursting out with more powerful and vast immortal power. The whole person was like a dazzling sun, shining so brightly that people dared not look directly at him.

At the same time, Zuo Zhu's already powerful Sharingan underwent an amazing change at this moment.

They spun rapidly, and eventually evolved into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, their deep and mysterious eyes flashing with a captivating light.

As Zuo Zhu exerted his strength, a force several times stronger than ever before roared out from his body, sweeping in all directions like a violent hurricane.

Nagato concentrated on mobilizing the power of the Six Paths within his body, doing his best to maintain its delicate balance.

Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his pale cheeks. His body was trembling slightly, but his eyes remained firm.

"Hurry! I can't resist the terrifying power of the sacred tree for long!" Uchiha Madara shouted at the top of his lungs.

It turns out that Uchiha Madara not only became one with the sacred tree, but was also able to control some of its power.

After so many years of accumulation and practice, although he could not completely control the entire sacred tree, he still had the ability to make the sacred tree temporarily reveal some flaws and break some illusions, thereby creating opportunities for Mingren and the other three to take advantage of.

However, the reason why this mysterious sacred tree possesses such a devastating power is not only due to the earth-shaking power it contains.

In fact, what really makes people feel creepy and chilling is that it can cleverly use the power of consciousness of trillions of lives in the world to serve itself.

You have to know that these countless people each have unique and complex thoughts and ideas, which are like millions of silk threads that are intertwined, entangled and merged together, and finally form an illusion system that is extremely large in scale and astonishingly complex.

The so-called maze that has always made several people shudder is actually just a tiny part of this illusion collection created by the consciousness of countless people.

But if all the consciousness links connecting to this sacred tree were completely severed, causing it to completely lose the ability to control these human consciousnesses, then what would appear before the world at this time might just be a big tree that was slightly stronger than an ordinary tree.

After all, it is just a slight mutation caused by some special factors, and it is far from being as terrible as people originally imagined.

After all... in the original world process, it was just a fruit tree that provided the Otsutsuki clan with fruits to pick at will and take whatever they wanted!

As Uchiha Madara shouted, the three of them gritted their teeth and injected more chakra into it. Although the dark force was strong, it was gradually forced back under their combined efforts.

The chakra touched the core of the root of the sacred tree, and a strong light flashed.

The entire dream maze began to collapse rapidly, and the surrounding scenes shattered like pieces of glass.

Uchiha Madara used all his strength to try to stabilize the situation and protect everyone's consciousness.

Akito, Sasuke, and Nagato also used their last bit of strength to maintain a stable output of chakra.

Finally, accompanied by a deafening roar, the connection between the sacred tree and the spiritual world was cut off.

The dark power retreated into the depths of the sacred tree like a tide, and the sacred tree stopped its frantic struggle.

The dream maze slowly dissipated, and the trapped person's consciousness began to return to his body.

The bodies shaped like White Zetsu around the world gradually returned to normal, and life returned to the earth.

The Imperial Ninja World and the No. 64 Ninja World were cheering and people were excited about their new life.

Akito, Sasuke, and Nagato collapsed to the ground exhausted, but with relieved smiles on their faces.

Uchiha Madara looked at the world that had regained its vitality, feeling mixed emotions.

However...

"Sure enough... I was actually caught in such a powerful illusion..."

Uchiha Itachi, who was in the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi, stared in disbelief at his hands that had turned as pale as snow.

At this moment, except for the pair of Sharingans that still sparkled with mysterious light and the deep tear troughs, the rest of his body had gradually transformed into a form that was exactly the same as White Zetsu!

What is even more despairing is that no matter whether it is Sasuke and Naruto beside him, or the members of the Akatsuki organization who once fought side by side, they all seem helpless in the face of this cruel reality, and are completely unable to reverse the terrible changes that have taken place in their bodies!

"No! This can't possibly be real! I won't believe it!!"

In this endless despair, Feidan let out hysterical roars and screams.

"Why is this happening? Lord Evil God! You once granted me immortality, but why do you want me to suffer this fate now? I won't accept this!"

"I have just woken up from a coma and now I have to face death... It's such a pity..."

In another corner, someone whispered softly.

The speaker was Naruto, who was full of hope not long ago, but now had an unconcealable bitter smile on his face.

"Mom and Dad... I really want to see you again..." The feeling of missing them surged into his heart like a tide, making him feel as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

At the same time, Hyuga Neji looked at the mark on his forehead that symbolized the family's bondage, and shook his head helplessly, grinning bitterly and muttering to himself: "Even if I eventually become this White Zetsu, I still can't seem to escape the fate of being a 'caged bird' that is like a cage that restricts my freedom... Hehe..."

His laughter was filled with endless sadness and self-mockery.

"Naruto-kun... being able to go to that world with you... really... feels pretty good..."

Hinata Hyuga stared blankly at the broken tree cocoon, her gaze passing through layers of obstacles and finally falling on Naruto in the distance.

At this moment, she was muttering silently in her heart, as if she wanted to convey this emotion to the other person.

On the other side, Orochimaru's pale, ghostly face, even though he had transformed into White Zetsu, still looked more eye-catching than others.

He slowly stuck out his tongue, spitting out a long thin blade, his cold snake eyes filled with endless emotion.
