【Ming Zuo】Walking Alone in Darkness

Naruto heard that it was indeed business, so he could only give up and continue gnawing on Sasuke's mouth.But he didn't let go of his hands, he hugged Sasuke and carried him to the bed, and sat beside him, let Sasuke's legs rest on his own, and put his shoes on before standing up together.

Itachi had a cold face the whole time, trying not to look at his beloved brother.

Shisui coughed lightly: "Sasuke, I still have something to do, let's go first?"

Sasuke responded, and he understood Shisui's meaning only after receiving Shisui's hard wink. He was also a little embarrassed, and gently pulled Naruto's hand, and shook his head towards Itachi.

Naruto shrugged his shoulders, so he didn't come into close contact with Sasuke again, and asked one more sentence: "Don't always walk around without shoes, don't you know that you are afraid of the cold? When it's cold, your hands and feet are cold, but you don't like to wear them. Shoes and socks, what's wrong with that, I said."

"Understood, long-winded." Sasuke disgusted.

"Hey, you still say I'm long-winded, didn't you prevent me from kicking my shoes crookedly in the hallway before?"

"That's because you're dirty."

Sakura has long been used to it, automatically blocking the daily flirting between her husband and wife, one by one, stuffing her teammate's medical bag onto the straps on the back of the two, and patted her: "Okay, you two, let's go."

"Why don't you know about this kind of thing, I said..."

"Don't blame me... the first generation Kazaki didn't even know." Gaara was speechless.

Gaara led the way and opened the secret passage behind the shrine in Maolin Temple.

Maolin Temple was really abandoned too early. I don’t know that the secret passages that have not been touched for hundreds of years will fall to pieces.Several people turned sideways to avoid it, and let the rot inside dissipate first.

"...How did Datongmu's people come in this kind of place." Xiao Ying covered her nose and frowned.

"With Huangquan Hirazaka, it's not a big problem to go anywhere. But..." Sasuke also raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and the blood-red lily of the six rounds scanned for a week.

"How?" Naruto asked.

"There are indeed traces left by Otsutsuki's people." Sasuke said.

It's true that the outside didn't look like it was unsealed at all, and it directly moved to the inside with the ability of space.It seems...it should also be extracting one tail of chakra.Sasuke frowned. This still doesn't explain why they didn't go directly to Gaara. Although Sagakushi is not weak, he will definitely be caught off guard in front of Otsutsuki whose ability is unknown. They shouldn't be afraid of Gaara's strength. , but for some other reason...

Sasuke turned around and looked at Naruto: "The remaining Chakra is enough for me to track them down. I want to check where they are now, okay?"

Letting Sasuke say this, Naruto twitched in his heart, pursed his lower lip, and nodded: "Okay, but I want to go with you. Only two people, it's not conspicuous."

His status as a tailed beast caused Sasuke to have concerns, but Naruto had already conceded to this point, and Sasuke also felt that he might be overprotecting, so he also nodded: "Try to hide the breath of Chakra."

Naruto turned his head and said to everyone: "Then Sasuke and I will go to investigate first. Gaara, you still need to increase your vigilance, and send any information to Konoha at any time. Shisui-san and Itachi will wait for me here Let's talk to Sasuke, just in case. Ino will temporarily stay in Sand hidden and pass on news at any time. Sakura, take the rest of Neji's team back to Konoha first, and wait for other arrangements."

Everyone agreed.Sasuke had never seen the seventh generation of Naruto with his own eyes, and it was interesting to see Naruto's orderly arrangement with a solemn face, so he tilted his head to watch.

"But it's really troublesome to send news now. I said, when will the telephone be invented..." Naruto finished arranging, muttered to himself in a low voice, turned around and saw Sasuke looking at him with a smile in his eyes, suddenly felt a little hot, like a Scratching his face like a silly teenager in the period of passionate love: "What...what's the matter? Did I look a little silly just now?"

"No, he's pretty handsome." Sasuke ticked the corner of his mouth, "Totally exceeded expectations."

"How low do you expect me to be?" Naruto bared his teeth at Sasuke feigned anger.

Passing through the dark gate of time and space, the two landed on a land with strange light.There is also a round of light source hanging in the air, but it doesn't look like the sun at all. Everything that is reflected is covered with a layer of light red, like blood.

Naruto narrowed his eyes uncomfortably, Sasuke pulled Naruto to hide behind a building.He had been here before, and it was in this dimension that he found Datongmu's trace for the first time in his previous life, and he had contact with the three of them.Like a certain ruin, the three of them used it as a temporary foothold for invading the earth.

Sasuke raised his chin at Naruto, Naruto nodded, and turned on the sage mode.But soon, Naruto shook his head at Sasuke: "No one."

"There's no one there?" Sasuke was a little surprised, "It's not a coincidence that they came here, so they must be on our side now, I don't know who it will be Churina, go back first to prevent—"

"No, don't go back yet." Naruto pulled Sasuke to stand up, "There is no one, but there is a very strange Chakra reaction, we have to go and see." Naruto frowned, with a look of disgust on his face: " It's still a disgusting feeling. Hey, Nine Lamas, have you ever felt this kind of chakra?"

Nine Lama fluttered his ears, overflowing with a little chakra, transformed into a little Nine Tails and squatted on Naruto's shoulder.This is a communication method that he discussed after his relationship with Naruto improved.Otherwise, it would be too troublesome for Naruto to repeat every word he said to Sasuke like now.

"Don't tell me, I really felt it." Jiu Lama said, "The old man said something similar."

The two rushed over there together, although they were talking, they didn't stop.Naruto was puzzled, and Kurama continued: "Many years ago, Madara died... Oh no, he faked his death. Anyway, it didn't take long for him to die. It should be the time of the second Hokage. Rock Yin has been studying puppet ninjutsu, and their ninjutsu was originally biased towards this side. The chakra of this feeling...is similar to that time."

"Puppet Ninjutsu?" Sasuke frowned, the name sounded very uncomfortable, and talking about Iwagakushi made him even more uncomfortable.The Uchiha ancestral tomb was stolen two years ago, and it was the people from Iwain who did it.Although he and Naruto recovered the coffin quickly, it was really not a trivial matter that could be forgotten lightly.

The two of them soon arrived at the source of the strange chakra. It was underground, and there was a cellar door made of thick glass-like material. Naruto and Sasuke looked down, and both of them were shocked.

Sasuke's first reaction was to be white.

Very similar.

The huge underground space, like an oversized cellar, is filled with densely packed and orderly arrangements—human-shaped things.He couldn't see his facial features clearly, only a vague outline, but the strange tree-like lines on his body could easily remind people of Bai Jue created by the power of the divine tree.

The chakra that Naruto feels is what they emanate, not human beings, more like... forcibly injecting chakra, they are trying to create life.

It may not be able to become a life, but it is enough to become a fighting force like a walking dead.Having had Kaguya's experience, Ming Zuo was convinced almost immediately that this was the army that Otsutsuki and the others were forming.

Naruto closed his eyes, fully opened the sage mode, and carefully felt the chakras mixed together.Because he was very familiar with it, and now he is deliberately probing, he easily found the chakras of Nanao and Yiwei, and there were actually five tails.

The five-tailed man Zhu Lihan is the ninja of Yanyin Village. Obviously, the five major countries have exchanged information with each other and confirmed the seriousness. How could Tsuchikage conceal the fact that his family Zhu Li was attacked?

"Sasuke, what do you think is going on? They collected the tailed beast's chakra for this?" Naruto squatted down, touching the thick glass wall with his hand, "But they only collected a small amount of tailed beast's chakra for copying ...will it have a big effect?"

"Go back and think about it." Sasuke said resolutely, "Destroy these things now." Without waiting for Naruto's opinion, he grabbed Naruto's collar with one hand, and jumped up suddenly with the man in his arms. Thick glass was smashed without warning.

"Sasuke, say hello, I said!?"

Sasuke was quite innocent: "Did I say that?"

After destroying an arsenal cleanly, several people found a source of energy in the depths of the cellar—a broken branch of a suspected divine tree.

The body of the sacred tree is the ten tails itself. With the ten tails scattered all over the world, there should be no sacred tree in the world.Sasuke and Naruto took a closer look and found that the chakras were similar, but not exactly the same.

"Speaking of which, they have said... Humans on Earth don't deserve Chakra, they want to recycle it." Sasuke said, "So is there such a sacred tree in their world?"

"If you just feel chakra, it's really quite similar, but the concentration of chakra is not good at all. No wonder you need to fuse the chakra of the tailed beast." Naruto said, "If you still want to come to the earth to seize the sacred tree here, then their Either there is no edge, and if there is..."

"It's also inferior." Sasuke looked at the severed branch.

The two had a little discussion about what to do with the suspected divine tree.It's definitely not good to stay, but it's not necessarily a good thing to take it back.Although Tomama and Orochimaru should be able to find a lot of things, there are too many unknown factors. No matter what uncontrollable energy will be generated by leading Otsutsuki to kill Konoha or the broken branch itself, it is an unknown threat.

So in the end Sasuke used a rather wicked solution.He and Naruto worked together to seal the broken branch with multiple barriers, and threw it into another different space.

After the two went back, they briefly told Zhi Itachi what they had seen and heard, and the four of them went back to Konoha first to discuss with everyone.

Using some special methods to inject chakra to create pseudo-life forms is definitely considered evil.Yanyin has studied this kind of thing many years ago, Tomona really knows something, and the principle is really similar to the Baijue made by Kaguya.Reminiscent of the previous incident where the Uchiha ancestral tomb was stolen, Yan Yin immediately became the first on the list of key targets.The early appearance of Otsutsuki in this life cannot be said to be related to Iwain's little tricks, but it is absolutely unavoidable.

Everyone should discuss this matter carefully. The old rule of the meeting place is Uchiha's old house and Madara's house.Although Naruto and Sasuke ran for many days and even tossed about the extraterrestrials, it was not too much pressure for them, so they didn't say they needed to rest.

But after Sasuke came back, he really felt a little uncomfortable.But he didn't think much about it, he just felt that a certain crane tail had given him laziness in the past few years, and he couldn't lift up his strength after exercising occasionally.

Naruto and Sasuke arrived earlier.The living room is very big, now besides Naruto Naruto, only two Okikas have arrived, but Madara sits far away as if he dislikes them. When Sasuke Naruto entered the door, Hashirama was enthusiastically recommending it to the sixth generation and his family His newly developed roasted mushrooms.

"It's fishy." Madara said disgustedly.

"Yo! Naruto and Sasuke are here, do you want to try?" Hashirama was very excited.

Naruto who is not green has no objection, Sasuke is not picky except for sweets, both of them tasted one, and then Sasuke received Madara and Obito's eyes like looking at a traitor.

"Not bad." Sasuke went further and further on the road of traitor.

Obito ran directly to Madara and sat down.

Kakashi greeted the two of them: "Hey. By the way, I said it last time. Would you like to try the saury made by the teacher? Come to my house."

"Okay, I say!" Naruto immediately cheered.

Sasuke glanced at Kakashi: "I have been your student for so many years, and I don't even know that you can cook. Do you think that Obito died so the cooking skills were also sealed together?"

"A child who holds grudges." Kakashi was not angry, and smiled and patted Sasuke's head.Sasuke was chewing mushrooms, his cheeks were moving, Kakashi gave him a blank look and ignored him.

Madara rolled his eyes: "What are you doing here again?"

"The invasion of the Otsutsuki clan is coming." Obito said, "But these Hokages don't feel any sense of crisis at all. Is this the time to eat mushrooms?"

"Anyway, it's Konoha who destroyed them." Madara said coldly.

"You're right." Obito agreed, "Destroy it."

So when Tsunade arrived, he wanted to punch the kindly grandfather who handed mushrooms back into the coffin.

She didn't do it because she loved her grandpa because she couldn't beat her step-grandmother.
