Zhu Zhuqing Is About to Receive the Curse Mark of Heaven and Enter State Two to Become a Witch (Part 1)
Zhu Zhuqing nodded, then followed Ye Chen onto a mountain path.
Only then did Zhu Zhuqing ask Ye Chen somewhat skeptically.
"Hinata... can that Six Paths of Pain really grant me great power? A few days ago, the person I wanted to kill most was Dai Mubai, but now the person I want to kill most is that hypocrite Tang San. That hypocrite Tang San is much stronger than Dai Mubai. He has a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, those hidden weapons, and the Clear Sky Hammer. Will I really be able to kill him someday?"
Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Ye Chen stopped, turned around, and looked at her with those gentle Byakugan eyes. He nodded seriously and said,
"Don't worry... Zhuqing. As long as you can officially join Pain's organization, you'll definitely be able to kill Tang San with your own hands someday."
Why was Ye Chen so certain?
Because he had already found the power most suitable for Zhu Zhuqing in the Reputation Points shop.
That power was the curse mark.
There were a total of five kinds of curse marks in the Reputation Points shop.
The most powerful among them were the Divine Curse Mark and the Witch Curse Mark.
Whether applying either of those curse marks to himself or someone else, he would need to spend a huge amount of Reputation Points.
And the power of those two curse marks far surpassed Orochimaru's Curse Mark of Heaven.
Through his conversation with Konan last night, Ye Chen had roughly understood that curse marks were actually a type of Sage Mode. Once someone entered a curse mark state, their strength, speed, and soul power would all increase severalfold.
The difference from Sage Mode was that curse marks could not be controlled freely.
After receiving the Curse Mark of Heaven, one could at most activate a single state, the so-called State Two.
However, the Divine Curse Mark and Witch Curse Mark could activate two states. Besides State Two, there was an even stronger State Three.
After obtaining Six Paths Power, one could even activate Ultimate Six Paths Mode, with Truth-Seeking Orbs floating all around the body. That was State Four...
With such a powerful Witch Curse Mark applied to Zhu Zhuqing, crushing that hypocrite Tang San in the future would naturally be more than easy.
"Mm, I believe you, Hinata..."
After receiving this affirmative answer from the Byakugan girl, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly gained confidence for some reason. Light returned to her eyes.
Although the person before her seemed to be nothing more than a frail young girl, Zhu Zhuqing felt that this girl was somewhat mysterious. She could always ease the sorrow in her heart and grant her new hope.
Zhu Zhuqing followed Ye Chen along the mountain path and out of Jinshui City.
Only then did Ye Chen spot the abandoned wooden house he had passed earlier, one that no one lived in.
Ye Chen quietly snapped his fingers, and with a bang, one of his clones appeared inside the wooden house.
Then, he used the As-You-Wish Transformation Technique with a thought.
That clone immediately transformed into Hinata's appearance as well.
After getting everything ready, Ye Chen stopped, patted Zhu Zhuqing on the shoulder, and said,
"We're here. That's my home ahead. I'll go call my brother Achen out. He'll take you to see Pain."
"Okay."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded. Naturally, she did not doubt the Byakugan girl's words.
Ye Chen turned around and entered the wooden house. After closing the door, he instantly changed back into his original appearance.
Meanwhile, his clone remained in Hinata's form.
Ye Chen exchanged a glance with his clone. Looking at Hinata's round, gentle eyes, he could not help wanting to hug her.
What a pity. A clone could only be looked at, not pressed down on... otherwise, it would burst right away.
Only a clone created after activating Six Paths Mode would possess abilities comparable to the real body.
Thinking this, Ye Chen emerged from the wooden house together with his clone.
The two of them came before Zhu Zhuqing. She stared fixedly at the red-haired man before her, feeling that he looked somewhat familiar.
At that moment, Ye Chen's Hinata clone took the initiative to introduce him.
"Zhu Zhuqing, this is my brother Achen. He works for Pain's organization. Let him take you there."
After the Hinata clone finished speaking, Ye Chen also put on a serious expression and looked at Zhu Zhuqing as he asked,
"Do you really want to join Pain's organization?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded and said,
"That's right... I want power. Can you take me in? Achen..."
Ye Chen scratched his head, pretending to be troubled, and said,
"I can't guarantee that, because I'm just an errand runner in Pain's organization. Usually, I only liven things up now and then. Pain also said that I'm the weakest in the organization... But I can take you to see Pain. Whether you can earn his approval will depend on your performance."
"Alright, then take me there..."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded. Although she was somewhat nervous, she was not afraid.
At that moment, there was a determination in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes as though she were ready to face death. After all, joining Pain's organization was her only path now.
"Alright, follow me."
Ye Chen nodded, then pretended to wave his hand and send his Hinata clone back.
"Big Sister Zhu Zhuqing, Big Brother Achen, goodbye..."
Ye Chen's Hinata clone cooperatively waved at both Ye Chen and Zhu Zhuqing.
Looking at Ye Chen's Hinata clone, Zhu Zhuqing unexpectedly felt reluctant to part with her. Then she waved as well and said,
"Thank you, Hinata. You've already helped me enough. From here on, it depends on my own fate... I hope I can change my destiny and obtain true freedom and happiness. That is all."
