"My consciousness could actually descend upon this statue!"
Guy was greatly shocked.
This was something an ordinary Clone Technique could never achieve.
Even clones with physical bodies like the Shadow Clone Technique, though they appeared to act according to the original body's instructions, were still independent individuals.
They could not allow consciousness to descend or share vision.
Yet this statue could do exactly that.
And this was only its most basic ability!
There were even more abilities waiting to be developed!
Guy withdrew his focus, and his perspective returned to his own body.
Although he still did not know all the specific effects of this [Incense Statue].
Its currently displayed abilities alone—"shared vision" and "consciousness descent"—were anything but ordinary.
"Absorbing the incense of all beings' wishes to grow... does that mean people need to worship it?"
Guy pondered as he looked toward the Yaksha Clan at the foot of the mountain, faintly visible as they busily built a temporary camp.
To be honest, after [Kotoamatsukami] had been broken, Guy somewhat regretted becoming the Blood Pool Clan's leader in such a muddled fashion...
He now bore the name of a rogue ninja and was developing his own forces outside Konoha.
Even if Minato Namikaze trusted him, what would everyone else think?
Once that bastard Danzo found out, who knew how he would slander Guy in Konoha.
Yet at this very moment, the system had given him something like this.
"Could it be that the system's original intention was for me to take the path of 'recruiting believers and gathering faith'?"
Guy was not entirely sure.
But no matter what, leaving the statue here for now and letting it absorb power on its own could not be wrong.
"Things in the future can wait until the future."
Guy slowly shook his head
