With Delta being captured, the tone of this outpost battle between Sasuke Faction and Kara has been set.
Sasuke side has seized the absolute initiative!
Shell's base camp.
The long-braided monk wearing white Hagoromo crossed his legs and rested his palms on his forehead casually.
"Tell me, Amado, why I just woke up from my sleep and saw you with such a bitter face in front of me."
In front of him, Amado buried his head deeply and his fingers were deeply embedded in his hair. From half an hour ago until now, he maintained this bitter and resentful posture without saying a word.
Amado raised his face, his eyes under the lenses were scarlet and bloodshot, and he looked like he had not slept well all night.
"Jigen, I'm afraid if I say it, I might not be able to control my emotions." Amado's tone sounded like he was trying to stay rational.
The man in front of him whom he called Jigen... was none other than Leader from Kara. His body was occupied by Ōtsutsuki Isshiki as a temporary 'vessel'.
It was he who cornered Sasuke and Naruto in his previous life... and started the story of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations!
After listening to Amado's explanation, he smiled elegantly and said, "It doesn't matter, just say it if you have any demands or complain, I will listen carefully. Who makes you my favorite subordinate? So, is the cloning plan of the device, do you encounter problems with research funds? I can find a way to get money for you..."
"No, there is no need for funds anymore, because Ancient Kingdom of Kucha's experimental base has been destroyed!!" Amado took the lead.
"What?" The smile on Jigen's face obviously stagnated. He leaned forward slightly, then put his hands on his face again, regaining his calm expression.
"When did it happen?"
"What happened last night."
"Who did it?"
"Ninja...Ninja named Jiraiya!"
"Ninja, Jiraiya..." Jigen murmured the name.
He has occupied this monk's body since the time of Kaguya, and has lived in seclusion on this land for thousands of years... He is not deaf to what is happening outside the window.
Instead, he always pays attention to the disturbances in this land.
He knows about Hagoromo and Hamura.
Know about Asura and Indra.
I know about the two descendants, Senju and Uchiha.
Familiar with the names of the two major ethnic groups, the former, middle and late Warring States Period, and dozens of generations of leaders.
He even knows... Chakra of Asura and Indra are constantly Reincarnation, and even the exact identity of each Reincarnation.
He knew that Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were the generation in which Reincarnation's power reached its peak.
He knew that Black Zetsu was secretly preparing a plan.
But he has never interfered with the progress of Shinobi World.
The inappropriate fit of the 'tool' is on the one hand, but the more important reason is that this former Kaguya boss can't see the three melons and two jujubes in the Jonin world...Tailed Beast? Ten-Tails's only Scales claw, he has the genuine Ten-Tails! And it is the original Ten-Tails that has not yet been bred into God Tree, and harvested Chakra Fruit!
Senjutsu? Humans with mortal bodies, just playing tricks on Natural Energy... In the eyes of Isshiki, who has Great Divine Technique like 'Sukunahikona', 'Daikokuten' and 'Chun', Senjutsu is like a kind of fire played by prehistoric humans.
As for Hashirama Cells, Sharingan...Ōtsutsuki, the products of degradation of physical energy and mental strength, they are even less discernible to him.
But... Isshiki, who was so arrogant and unconventional, happened to remember the name of Ninja, who had no noble bloodline and no Monster Strength chaos.
That is 'Jiraiya'.
In the original work, Isshiki evaluated Jiraiya as the 'star of change'.
An individual born with a mission. In the eyes of God, he does not have great power, but he can trigger a chain of drastic changes with his unique personality charm.
"Jiraiya... Mount Myōboku is the Prophecy Toad's keeper, Hokage Minato Namikaze's Teacher. Many years ago, I just took a look at him from a distance and realized that he contained the opportunity for 'change'."
"So... has his transformation reached me? This is not a good sign." Jigen tapped his forehead lightly with his index finger wearing the Ceramic ring.
"Well... the experimental base can be rebuilt after it is destroyed, as long as I have my funds and your technology. So is this what worries you? Old friend."
Jigen spoke calmly and without any intention of settling accounts with the other party. He really wanted to suffer this dumb loss silently.
Sure enough... it's not that easy to get Jigen out of trouble.
You only value interests, and you will only choose to accept the fait accompli, and then choose the solution that maximizes interests.
Kaguya attacked you secretly back then... causing you to fall from the altar. You are still alive today, and you have never even thought about seeking revenge on Kaguya and her descendants.
I just think about how to find a suitable 'vessel' to complete Reincarnation, then plant Ten-Tails, cultivate God Tree, and harvest Chakra Fruit.
If I want you like this... to come forward and die, you must have sufficient preparations.
Amado clenched his fists tightly and squeezed out a low question from between his teeth, "Your base is destroyed and can be rebuilt... but my daughter!!! was captured by the other party because she went to fight against the invaders!!!"
"Huh?" After hearing this, Jigen finally showed a surprised look, "Delta... was captured?"
"Yes... right in front of my eyes, he was knocked down and tied up by the opponent!!"
"Jiraiya did it? Can his strength reach this level? Delta is a monster that can survive ten rounds without me using 'Black Eye'. How could it be possible with Jiraiya's kind of strength..."
"It's not Jiraiya, it's his disciple Nagato who takes action!!!"
"Nagato... oh." Jigen rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, "I remember, in order to realize Infinite Tsukuyomi, the child who transplanted Rinnegan later became Jiraiya's disciple..."
"If it's that Rinnegan, it's possible to do something like this... Have the other inner formations been dispatched? If everyone is dispatched, it's not like Delta can't be saved."
"Jigen, you've slept for too long. You still don't know what earth-shaking changes have happened outside."
Amado finally introduced the topic.
"Huh?" Jigen raised his eyes and looked at him. "What?"
"Did you know? Infinite Tsukuyomi has been activated!"
"What did you say...?" Jigen put his hand down from his forehead. "Black Zetsu, are you taking action in advance?"
Amado shook his head vigorously. "It's not just a Black Zetsu problem..."
"If it's not Black Zetsu, then it's Madara. The only one who can reform Tailed Beast and activate Infinite Tsukuyomi's 'Rinnegan' is this generation of Indra Reincarnation, the pair activated by Madara Uchiha!"
Amado said something astonishing, "That is already a thing of the past. Today, Shinobi World, Rinnegan's eye-openers are almost as many as five fingers!"
"You said... what?"
As soon as Amado finished speaking, Jigen stood up in a daze.
