Spark!

Hyuga Shin was already very familiar with this task, so there were naturally no problems.

He immediately prepared to first completely obliterate the Will of the Six Paths within Kakuzu's body, and then deal with Hidan.

He didn't expect that this check would actually yield an unexpected gain for Hyuga Shin.

Due to Earth Grudge Fear, all four of Kakuzu's hearts belonged to others.

The Will of the Six Paths embedded within him was relatively more abundant, and its strength varied.

However, they were all in a dormant state and were instantly annihilated by Hyuga Shin.

As for the Will of the Six Paths within his soul, before it could even revive, it was captured by Hyuga Shin's divine sense and smashed into dust with a single clap.

It didn't give him any chance to transmit information to the Six Paths.

Kakuzu had been wondering why Hyuga Shin had suddenly told him to sit cross-legged and concentrate.

It wasn't until he suddenly felt changes occurring in his body, not only did his Chakra amount increase, but its purity also improved.

His entire being felt as if it had shed its restraints, a sense of relief like escaping from immense pressure filled his body and mind.

It felt like escaping from a sea of suffering, truly miraculous.

Moreover, he felt that his spirit had also undergone a significant change.

His entire being was as if reborn, from the inside out, given new life!

Although his heart was filled with questions, he knew that now was not the time to ask.

If Hyuga Shin needed him to know, he would surely tell him.

On the other hand, the examination of Hidan was more interesting.

With him, Hyuga Shin might have discovered a secret that the previous Hokage era had never mentioned.

That is, Hidan's body contained absolutely no Chakra or the Will of the Six Paths! His body contained a completely different kind of energy.

It seemed this world was far from as simple as it appeared!

Hyuga Shin knew he had taken another step closer to the truth of this world!

Perhaps the Pure Land was not entirely under the Sage of Six Paths' control; there should be other unknown existences.

Studying the source of power within Hidan's body, Hyuga Shin already had his own conjectures.

After finishing the inspection and removal of the "nails" within the bodies of the two, Hyuga Shin felt much more at ease.

Seeing the confused expressions on Kakuzu and Hidan's faces, he prepared to explain things to them.

"I just performed a thorough examination of your bodies to help you remove the 'nails' within."

"This world is far darker than you imagine, and the Ninja World is merely a cage. Even the strong can become puppets at any moment."

"For the sake of our ideal of a perfect world, we absolutely cannot allow you to be interfered with."

"However, Hidan is a special case. Currently, no unsuitable aspects have been discovered. We'll observe for a while longer."

Hyuga Shin's words immediately sent a shock through Kakuzu's heart!

Even someone as powerful as him had unknowingly had "nails" planted in him, and faced the risk of becoming a puppet!

What kind of existence was this, to be so terrifying!

Kakuzu did not doubt Hyuga Shin's words; the feeling of being reborn from the inside out was undeniable.

His body and soul felt as if they had broken free from shackles, his Chakra was more refined and active, and its quantity had also increased significantly.

This reminded Kakuzu of what Hyuga Shin had said earlier about a difficult problem that needed solving, and he figured this was probably it.

It made sense; if their members were all controlled, how could they talk about the ideal of a perfect world?

In the following time, Hyuga Shin explained the hidden truths of the Ninja World to the two, as well as the existence of the Sage of Six Paths.

He also shared some of his plans and goals with Kakuzu and Hidan.

This was to allow the two to truly understand the organization.

And he named the organization "Spark," meaning a single spark can start a prairie fire.

Hearing Hyuga Shin's revelation of the true nature of the Ninja World, Kakuzu found it almost unbelievable.

He couldn't imagine that the entire Ninja World was like a picture book, already under the control of unseen manipulators!

Everything was prearranged!

Even they, the so-called powerhouses, could lose themselves at any moment!

No wonder Hyuga Shin's ideal sounded so unrealistic, yet he still persisted!

He, under the darkness engulfing the Ninja World, was perhaps the only Spark!

A strong sense of mission filled Kakuzu's heart, and he agreed even more with Hyuga Shin's idea of establishing a harmonious Ninja World!

If, before, he had accepted Hyuga Shin's invitation out of a desire to find a new life goal and respect for a powerful individual, Then now, for Kakuzu, overturning the darkness that covered the Ninja World had become the faith of his life!

This chaotic and distorted Ninja World, shrouded in darkness, needed their organization to save it!

They will become a beacon of light illuminating the dark Ninja World!

Hidan, that kid, is a bit dense. Regarding something this significant, he just wore a look of detached amusement, as if he'd stumbled upon some earth-shattering secret.

But it's understandable. This kid isn't part of the ninja system at all, so he can't possibly empathize.

However, he did express his agreement with the organization's mission.

In his own words: "Lord Jashin is the savior of this world! He will shatter the darkness of the Ninja World and usher in a bright future. Lord Jashin is the true god!"

Hyuga Shin and Kakuzu's foreheads creased upon hearing this.

He never forgets to promote the Evil God he worships, no matter the situation.

This guy is so dense; I really don't know if he doesn't understand or is just pretending not to.

But overall, the immortal duo gained a thorough understanding of the Spark organization's goals and plans.

They became even more supportive and approving of the idea of establishing a unified Ninja World.

Having this much is enough.

Next, the conversation naturally turned to inviting new members to the organization.

After all, Kakuzu and the others understood that such grand ambitions and ideals couldn't be achieved without sufficiently powerful teammates.

This also made Kakuzu understand why Hyuga Shin had invited that wicked fellow Hidan.

Most likely, he was intended to be a hired muscle, especially since Hidan's Evil God secret techniques are so bizarre!

Even a strong opponent would have trouble escaping death if caught in one.

If they were enemies, these two would be a real headache.

"Leader, what's so special about the other reserve member you mentioned earlier, Sasori?"

Kakuzu, having figured out the reason behind Hyuga Shin's invitation to Hidan, also became interested in Sasori.

"Him? He's pretty much the fuse for the Third Shinobi World War in the Script. He killed the Third Kazekage."

Upon hearing Kakuzu's question, Hyuga Shin revealed a secret.

The death of the Third Kazekage was officially claimed by Konoha to the outside world, and everyone knew it. To think it was this reserve member who did it.

Kakuzu gained a certain level of confidence in the reserve member Sasori. After all, even he wasn't entirely sure he could defeat the Third Kazekage.

As expected of the talents meticulously selected by the leader; each possesses their own unique abilities.

"Then how should we go about finding this guy? He's good at hiding, and after doing something so significant, he probably won't show himself easily."

Kakuzu was very invested in inviting new teammates. Only with enough strong companions could their ideals and beliefs have a chance of being realized.

"Sasori is a puppeteer, so he'll definitely need to procure puppet materials. Have you investigated some material suppliers beforehand? Do they have any news about Sasori?"

Hyuga Shin voiced his thoughts.

"I did consider that, and I even specifically looked into the shops he frequently patronized for purchases."

"But although those shopkeepers have an impression of Sasori, they don't know where he went, and he hasn't shown up for a while."

"So, there wasn't any useful information."

Kakuzu responded to Hyuga Shin's question.

After all, he was an old hand with extensive experience. With Hyuga Shin's guidance, he naturally investigated in relevant directions.

It's just that he truly didn't obtain any useful clues.

"That does make him quite difficult to find. I apologize for troubling you both." Hyuga Shin replied with genuine sincerity.

"This is what we should be doing."

"But how should we proceed with searching for the reserve member Sasori next?"

Kakuzu asked for Hyuga Shin's opinion, wanting to hear his thoughts and perhaps learn something.

In his view, since Hyuga Shin was here, he must have a way.

As an old-timer, Kakuzu had firsthand experience of Hyuga Shin's unfathomable depths.

"Go to the underground black market or search the shops Sasori frequented for some of his belongings."

"Any puppets or puppet toys he made would work, or even things he wore."

"Of course, it would be even better if you could obtain a part of his body as a medium."

If none of that can be obtained, I'll personally go to Sunagakure and find a way to acquire some of his personal items.

Finding people isn't difficult for Hyuga Shin.

If he could advance to the Nascent Soul Realm, he could easily calculate their approximate location with just their name.

He can do it now, but the consumption is a bit too high and not worth it. It's better to use the old methods; it won't take much time either.

Sasori, hiding in a remote village, was researching how to turn the Third Kazekage's body into a puppet.

He had no idea that the person who would change his life was about to arrive.
