All techniques related to life are subject to the principle of exchange.

Asking Death God for help is similar; one can offer one's own soul as Sacrifice, requesting Death God to devour the enemy's soul.

Shinki only remembered to improve this Ninjutsu after seeing the scene in Kushina's memory of the Fourth Kushina sealing the Nine-Tails.

After the improvement, it can Sacrifice any nearby soul to summon Death God...

All souls that are devoured by Death God are sealed forever inside Death God's belly, with no possibility of reincarnation!

This is the basis for Shinki's naming of this Sealing Jutsu!

Thinking of this, Shinki suddenly remembered that the Fourth Hokage had also Sacrifice his soul to the Death God when he used the Reaper Death Seal, so he was now also inside the Death God's belly, never to be reborn...

Shinki began to ponder, "Could we think of a way to make Death God spit out the souls it has devoured..."

The Death God, who had already returned to the Underworld, felt a chill in his stomach!

Although the technique to seal the Impure World Reincarnation had been developed, Shinki felt it still needed improvement.

Every time an Impure World Reincarnation is sealed away, the Death God (Death God) has to appear in the world again. The Death God must be incredibly busy...

Furthermore, Kabuto's Impure World Reincarnation Legion might include former Konoha members; we can't let them be among them...

"Looks like we'll have to think of a new approach..."

At the Akatsuki's Secret Base, Kabuto opened his eyes in a panic.

"That's terrifying! That guy, Shinki, actually used the Reaper Death Seal to seal the Impure World Reincarnation user!"

"Does he want his life? ヽ( ຶ▮ ຶ)ノ!!"

"No... Shinki wouldn't be that stupid..."

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, we've found their hiding place!"

Kumogakure.

Supreme Commander Raikage issued the order, "Surprise Attack Division, First, Second, and Fifth Division, move out and wipe out the remaining Akatsuki forces in all countries in one fell swoop!"

"The Third Division is assisting the Sensor Ninja Team in searching for the Akatsuki Headquarters!"

"The Fourth Division will remain at headquarters, ready to be deployed at any time!"

"Each unit must protect the communications Intelligence Ninjas within their ranks. Only with them can I maintain real-time communication with you."

The Ninjas from each unit shouted in unison, a deafening roar, "Roger that!!"

Soon, all the Ninja units were mobilized, while the Raikage and Hokage remained in the command center to coordinate the overall situation based on the real-time updates.

In the dense forest, Tokuma Hyuga and Aburame Muta, having discovered the location of the Akatsuki's base, frantically fled!

Not far behind them, a group of people followed closely, seemingly tireless!

Tokuma Hyuga was now panting heavily from running!

The Hyuga Clan members are skilled in Taijutsu and have physical abilities superior to ordinary people, but even they can't withstand running continuously for several days...

Tokuma said speechlessly, "Don't these people ever get tired? They keep following us without stopping to rest!"

Another team member Aburame Muta, said, "My bugs told me that the Chakra within them is extraordinary, and did you see the cracks on their faces...?"

Tokuma: "I was so focused on escaping that I didn't have time to look at their faces."

"Let's stop talking and save our energy. We have to get this message out!"

Behind Tokuma's squad.

The group of Ninjas, each with their own unique appearance, were equally puzzled.

This includes Bai, who had previously fought against Shinki.

He muttered, "I remember dying on that bridge, so how did I wake up here and find my body out of my control?"

The unidentified Ninja with an afro next to him said, "I'm curious about that too."

Among the group, an older Ninja offered his guess. "If nothing unexpected happens, we've probably been Impure World Reincarnation using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. This is Ninjutsu developed by the Second Hokage of Konoha. I wonder who used this Ninjutsu to revive us; it's like we're dying in a state of utter unease..."

Bai nodded. "Yes, this feeling of being aware of something but not being able to control your body is very uncomfortable."

As she continued, Bai murmured, "I wonder Zabuza survived, and how he is now..."

Although the Impure World Reincarnation Ninja team kept chatting, their pursuit speed was by no means slow!

With their tireless pursuit, the distance between the two sides is constantly closing!

Within the Impure World Reincarnation group, someone seemed to know they were being manipulated into doing evil, and deliberately shouted loudly, "You two Konoha Ninjas up ahead, hurry up!"

"Otherwise, we'll catch up with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ninja was shocked to find that the other party had stopped!

Is this a sign they're not planning to run away, and are intending to surrender immediately? (¬‸¬)?

"Something's not right. It looks like they're being held back by someone," said the Ninja with the afro.

As they were talking, the Impure World Reincarnation Ninja team had already arrived behind Tokuma Hyuga and his companion!

At that moment, they finally saw clearly who was blocking Tokuma Hyuga's path!

Upon seeing the man's face clearly, Bai's pupils dilated sharply. "Lord Zabuza?"

"What are you doing here! (⊙o⊙)"

At this moment, Zabuza's face was wrapped in bandages, Great Sword was slung over his back, and his expression remained cold.

After Haku's death, Zabuza realized that the ideals he had once held dear had become unimportant.

He lost his purpose in life, became listless, and relied on low-priced, simple jobs to make ends meet...

Until they heard that the Shinki had revealed its Wood Release, shaking the Shinobi World.

After that, news of more and more genius Ninjas from Konoha kept coming out!

Actually, Shinki wasn't Zabuza's enemy, but Zabuza desperately needed a goal in life!

Therefore, Zabuza his mind to improve himself and assassinate Shinki!

Unfortunately, the Shinki possessing the Flying Thunder God technique is extremely difficult to capture, and its whereabouts are unpredictable, Zabuza never had a chance to make a move.

Until the Fourth Shinobi World War broke out, the Allied Forces of the major Ninja Villages gathered.

He heard that the Shinki was hidden somewhere, and he began his journey to find Shinki once again.

Unexpectedly, they encountered the fleeing Konoha duo on the road, and Haku was following behind them!

The moment Zabuza saw Haku, although Zabuza calm on the surface, his heart was pounding wildly!!

"Haku, where have you been all these years?" Zabuza's voice was hoarse and trembling.

Bai shook his head. "I don't know either. It felt like I took a nap and woke up here."

"However, I no longer have control over my body."

"Lord Zabuza, you'd better leave now!"

Inside the Akatsuki's Secret Base.

Kabuto, controlling the Impure World Reincarnation Ninja, wore a playful expression. "It seems preserving the reanimated Ninja's consciousness was indeed the right thing to do; otherwise, we wouldn't have seen this scene of old friends reuniting and moving each other to tears. •ᴗ•"

"Unfortunately, I can only control his body, not his mouth..."

In the forest, Zabuza slowly raised his Kubikiribōchō and asked, "Who is controlling you?"

Tell me his identity, and I'll rescue you right now!

Several hundred meters away from Zabuza and his group, Kakashi, leading the Third Combat Division, looked into the distance with a puzzled expression. "Eh? Those people look kind of familiar!(´°Δ°`)"
