The only difference in this cycle was that outsiders came into this world. Perhaps because the first outsiders had directly clashed with the people here, all those who came afterward had been regarded as mortal enemies. And who were these people who came here?
Li sighed. There was no need to think about it; the people who came here were precisely those who had previously been chosen by the system. They had all vanished into nothingness, dying in this place that Li now found somewhat beneath his notice.
After fighting outsiders so many times, the people here had inevitably developed an effective way to deal with them. Like the chains currently binding him—if Li could use his own power, the people here would be as helpless as ants before him.
And now, it was clear that he was in for a hard fight.
Fortunately, from the Raikage's memories, Li had learned something: only six people knew about this world's endless cycle—Kakashi, Raikage A, Gaara, Mei Terumi, Ōnoki, and Orochimaru.
After each cycle, everyone else would regain their old memories.
The reason the Raikage was charging in so recklessly was simple as well. He understood that even if he died, he would revive. And in the Raikage's memories, every person here had died at least hundreds or thousands of times. Once, someone incredibly powerful had even broken free of those chains.
He had unleashed an unimaginably powerful Planetary Devastation. That single attack had destroyed the Earth itself, but that person had also died beneath his own technique.
Then the world began its cycle again.
Li sighed softly. In truth, he could create such a world himself, and so long as no one interfered, it would continue operating forever. But correspondingly, it would consume an enormous amount of Li's power and life
