Before Reversed Reaper Death Seal, there were some discordant actions in the letter. But Aoba didn't ask carefully at that time.
This matter has a very high priority for him. It is even higher than the resurrection of several Hokage. Therefore, he waited until this time before starting to deal with this matter alone.
Xin is also a little confused.
Hidan in the original plot is a somewhat crazy person. He serves Evil God and likes to torture and kill innocent people. He is a complete pervert.
But after being covered by Kotoamatsukami, Xin's entire consciousness has undergone tremendous changes. He has become a perfect tool man who is eager to learn and make progress, and is determined to work hard.
But now there was a hint of uneasiness in Xin's eyes.
"I don't know. The moment Reaper appeared, my body froze... No, it didn't freeze. It just... lost control."
"I lost control. Please talk carefully."
"It's hard for me to describe that feeling. It's like my body suddenly has another thought."
"Another thought? You mean Evil God? Is Evil God disturbing you?"
Speaking of another thought, the first thing that Aoba thought of was Evil God. This guy seems not as good as Reaper. But it is very likely that he is the same kind of existence as Reaper.
Aoba has always been very concerned about the existence of Evil God.
"No, it's not Evil God's interference... It's not right either. I don't know how to describe it. For a moment, I had a feeling... I am Evil God."
"!!!"
Aoba was suddenly startled. Then he was thoughtful.
What exactly is the Evil God that Hidan believes in? In the original plot, no explanation was given in the end. Aoba has also been trying to figure out what that thing is.
He just didn't have a clue, he didn't even know where to start.
And now, Hidan has given a brand new possibility. Is he Evil God?
"Why do you say that? Haven't you always believed in and served evil gods?"
"Yes, that's the case. Jashin Religion raised me. I have been able to sense the existence of Evil God since I was a child. It is a very vague feeling. Whenever I kill someone and sacrifice, I can feel his pleasure.
But I have never actually seen Evil God. I have never communicated with it at the language level.
During the day, the moment Reaper appeared, I felt it again. And this time, it was very close to me. So close that I thought it was inside my body.
But that feeling is a little different. It's closer than it is attached to me. It's so close that... I am it."
What Hidan said was a bit messy. Aoba rummaged through it a little to find the information he needed.
What Hidan said is incredible. But if you think about it carefully, it is not unreasonable.
First of all, his Immortal Body. Hidan's Immortal Body can be said to be very unreasonable. Even if his head falls off, he can still talk and move casually.
This level of Immortal Body has stronger recovery capabilities than Hashirama Senju and Sage Body. It can be said that it is a bit too strong.
Also, why the so-called Jashin Religion is the only one who can perceive the so-called Evil God. If he is Evil God himself, it would be understandable.
Aoba once studied Jashin Religion. The history of this sect is not long, only a few decades.
So, Aoba has a speculation, maybe Hidan is really Evil God. But it is not complete yet.
In the original plot, Hidan was defeated and buried alive by Shikamaru, and Evil God did not appear in the end.
In other words, Evil God never gave his most loyal believer any unexpected help from the beginning to the end.
However, if Hidan is Evil God, his ability is the ability of Evil God. This all makes sense.
"Can you still get back the feeling you had before?"
"I can't do it anymore. The feeling is very vague, just like my subconscious. I can feel its existence. But I can't actively contact it and mobilize that feeling."
Aoba nodded. There was a vague guess in his mind. However, this kind of thing cannot be verified for the time being. He kept this matter in his heart.
Aoba has always felt that Reaper and Evil God, who did not appear much in Hokage, might be involved in something very secret and dangerous. So he has been studying it secretly. Even Tsunade Kakashi and the others don't know about it.
But this time, Aoba miscalculated.
Not long after chatting with Hidan, he tidied up the laboratory and was about to leave.
The door opened and Tsunade walked in.
"I knew you were here."
Tsunade carried a bottle of wine and sat directly in front of Aoba.
"Have a drink with me."
"... It's already early in the morning, and you came to the laboratory to have a drink with me? What happened?"
"It's too tiring to explain the current Konoha to my two grandfathers. They are a little uncomfortable with this world."
"Isn't that expected? Don't worry about this kind of thing."
"I never said I was worried, but you Aoba. Are you hiding something from me?"
"... Why do you say that?"
"Haha, I just saw the letter. Are you two dating here late at night? And he didn't pay for Reversed Reaper Death Seal's skills. Do you really think I don't understand anything?"
Tsunade actually came after noticing Aoba's concealment. But Aoba didn't know how to speak about this matter. That conjecture was too bizarre. I'm afraid not many people could accept the whole Shinobi World.
"I..." Aoba thought for a moment and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Tsuna Teuchi.
"Forget it, it's rare for you to show such a troubled expression. I won't embarrass you. Since you choose to hide it, you must be unsure yourself, right?"
"That's right. It's just some conjectures at the moment."
"Well, in that case, tell me when you have the results." Tsunade said, drained the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then took a step forward.
"Now, let's talk about something lighter. Have you had a good rest?"
"..."
