"You're no human being!"
Hidan's assessment of Ye Zhuo can be summed up in just two words: "True dog."
One week later.
The Shadowkhan will take over the area near the sea and all forces located at sea.
The Shadow Empire is also connected to the Land of Earth, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Fire.
Furthermore, by occupying Rain Hidden Village, they severed the Land of Earth from the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire.
It became an isolated place.
During this period.
Hidan's screams could often be heard outside the village.
Ye Zhuo could kill him with a single punch.
After some time, the so-called Evil God would heal him.
At first, there were no flaws.
Even after Ye Zhuo killed Hidan hundreds of times, the speed at which the Evil God could heal Hidan slowed down considerably.
Now.
Hidan has been killed countless times.
Ye Zhuo still managed to kill him with a single punch, but a full recovery would take a day and a night.
"Didn't you say you could live forever?"
"Of course I need nutrition too. How can you not give me anything to eat or drink?"
Hidan was so angry at the sight of Ye Zhuo that he gritted his teeth.
He discovered that Ye Zhuo possessed quite a few formidable weapons; he had personally experienced the effects of that staff, which could completely counter healing abilities.
Even the sealing technique of the Reaper Death Seal has no problem.
It's even possible to annihilate Hidan in an instant, provided the destructive power is strong enough.
Even more impressively, some can kill someone in the blink of an eye, rendering them unconscious.
Ye Zhuo could do all of that, but he just liked to use Hidan as a punching bag.
"This is pointless, I'll send you to your death!"
The final punch.
He attacked while Hidan was watching.
With just one punch, Hidan's entire body was completely destroyed; the force of the punch annihilated all of Hidan's cells until he was reduced to ashes!
Wow!
In the Naruto World, people possess souls, and under normal circumstances, they go to the Pure Land after death.
Hidan was no exception; he was overjoyed. Even if it was proven that the Evil God could not resurrect Infinity Dao, at least he would no longer suffer from Ye Zhuo's torment.
"Reaper Death Seal!"
Ye Zhuo quickly formed hand seals, and Death God appeared with a yawn.
He glanced at Ye Zhuo but didn't say anything. This move was clearly illogical; Hidan was already dead.
Are you really thinking of kidnapping my soul?
Death God was helpless, but there was nothing it could do.
Since we're already here, we should at least take someone with us.
Swish!
Hidan's soul laughter abruptly stopped, and he was quickly dragged away by the Death God.
"Damn it!"
See you next time.
Ye Zhuo was very happy; he thought the Death God of the Shinobi World was a good tool.
Hidan is also good; he's a rare find among punching bags.
The Shadow Empire expanded rapidly, swallowing up the Shinobi World until only the Land of Wind, the Land of Fire, and the Land of Earth remained.
Ye Zhuo was waiting for the system tasks to refresh.
When we have nothing to do, we eat some barbecue in the village and play games with Konan. We're happy and content.
However, a true Ninja Alliance was established in the Shinobi World.
Two weeks later.
One late night.
Ye Zhuo was still dreaming.
Ohnoki of the Land of Earth, accompanied by Akatsuchi Kurotsuchi, sneaked in from the edge of Rain Hidden Village and headed towards Konoha of the Land of Fire.
Konoha Village.
With Ohnoki's arrival, the Hokage's meeting room was already filled with powerful figures from all walks of life.
Wind Rasa, earth casts shadows on the Ohnoki.
Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, one of the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya.
The capitals of all the major families have gathered here.
They must join forces to build a true Ninja Alliance to fight against the Shadow Empire that could launch an attack at any moment and Destruction Dao the Shinobi World.
"The situation is very bad right now."
Ohnoki looked somewhat embarrassed, but it wasn't because of the long journey; it was purely due to a lingering doubt in his mind.
"The Land of Earth has been growing stronger and richer over the years."
Recently, however, more and more people have been secretly fleeing to the Shadow Empire.
"These idiots, do they think going to those places will make them better?"
As Ohnoki grew angry, Rasa's expression became even more unpleasant.
"One-tenth of the people of the Land of Wind fled to the Shadow Empire, and we didn't have many people to begin with."
Moreover, a large portion of these came from slaves who worked for the daimyo.
Even some ronin, after the daimyo they once supported failed and they became ronin from samurai, refused to submit and went to the Shadow Empire."
Rasa was even more unhappy, as the living conditions in their Land of Wind were extremely poor.
Now even the last bit of labor has vanished; it makes my teeth itch with rage just thinking about it.
I really want to rip all their heads off.
Meanwhile, Konoha had recently completed the Chunin Exams.
Some Ninja Shadowkhan stood out, but they had not yet had time to truly mature.
"Currently, the Shadow Empire only has one truly capable fighter."
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at everyone.
As is widely known, the Shadow Empire has an Impel Down, which holds powerful figures from various ninja villages.
And all the villagers in his Hidden Demon Village originally came from various villages.
To everyone else, this must have been seen as a sign of disloyalty and alienation.
But they completely forgot one thing.
Why did those people flee to the Shadow Empire?
How was Ye Zhuo able to suppress all the enemies all by himself?
"One person?"
Ohnoki was somewhat annoyed.
"He could wipe out the entire Akatsuki all by himself. Your Konoha has the best intelligence, and you were the first to establish the ANBU. I heard that the Akatsuki was founded by Jiraiya's three disciples."
Ohnoki deliberately made some things public.
As the Tsuchikage, his grasp of intelligence over the decades has far surpassed that of ordinary people, which has also enabled the Land of Earth to maintain vigilance against the major ninja villages.
"The Akatsuki has been wiped out."
Jiraiya recently returned to Konoha Village, also to offer assistance.
The capture of Tsunade and Orochimaru made him much more cautious.
They were on the lookout for a while, to avoid being caught by Ye Zhuo.
It was truly baffling that Ye Zhuo, despite being one of the Legendary Sannin, had not yet made a move against him.
"So what?"
Ohnoki sounded much more relaxed as he spoke, since the Cloud Hidden Village had completely disappeared.
"According to intelligence, your Cloud Hidden Village has hired Akatsuki the most times."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's words caused Ohnoki's expression to change.
"We're here to collaborate!"
Ladies and gentlemen, why bring up the past again?
"The Akatsuki has been reduced to ashes; our priority is to join forces to preserve the ninja village."
Ohnoki quickly changed the subject.
This is Ohnoki, who has dominated Hidden Rock Village for decades, a being who has forgotten the Second Tsuchikage's "Will of Stone".
Sometimes, as a human being, without that one special opportunity in life, one may never return to their original self.
"In this war, your Land of Earth is isolated and without support. My Konoha Village and the Sand Hidden Village must join forces and break through the Rain Hidden Village first."
The fact that Three Moons Suspended is already strange, not to mention that Rain Hidden Village also has a strange Demon Tree.
As you should know, Hanzo was suspected of dying at the hands of this tree back then, though it didn't seem to be as tall as it is now.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was no saint either.
The Land of Earth is now the same as the Land of Lightning was back then.
We could be destroyed by the Shadow Empire at any moment, and we must not allow Ohnoki to impose his conditions.
"Then let's form an alliance!"
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Ohnoki chose to temporarily submit.
