Chapter 156 Otsutsuki Shiki Appears! Kashin Koji and the Kara Organization!
Chapter 156 Otsutsuki Isshiki Appears! Kashin Koji and the Kara Organization!
Back then, Chiba destroyed the three holy lands, and Jiraiya chose to stand with Mount Myōboku, sharing life and death, and died on the spot along with the Great Toad Sage, Fukasaku Shima, and others.
That was almost ten years ago.
However now—
In Orochimaru and Tsunade's vision, the familiar figure with long white hair and a burly, tall build was undoubtedly Jiraiya!
Although he was wearing a white mask, the two of them had worked with him for many years and could not possibly mistake him.
Tsunade couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "You are—"
"Jiraiya?!"
Orochimaru's expression changed as well.
"Impure World Reincarnation, huh?"
"No, judging from this state, it's not a resurrected corpse through Edo Tensei, so this is—"
"Hmph, whoever you are, it seems you're trying to save Tsunade and the others?"
"So, in other words, you still want to be my enemy after all—"
'
however.
The mysterious man who suddenly appeared shook his head.
"You're wrong, Orochimaru."
"On the contrary, I've come to invite you to become our companion."
Orochimaru and Tsunade's expressions immediately changed.
"Invite me? To become your companion?"
"Who are 'we' as you're referring to?"
The mysterious man, who looked remarkably like Jiraiya, smiled slightly.
"It is an organization that is far more powerful than Akatsuki."
"I know that the Akatsuki organization is now defunct in name only, and the remaining members can only live a life of hiding and eking out a living under the tyranny of Uchiha Chiba."
"However, if you choose to join our organization, I can guarantee you will gain even greater power, and—"
"You'll have access to all the research materials you need, allowing you to conduct your experiments to your heart's content."
Orochimaru's heart skipped a beat, but he still let out a cold laugh.
"You think you can win me over with just a few words?"
"Who do you think you are?"
"What makes you think your organization can stand against Uchiha Chiba?!"
"That man is someone who even killed Kaguya Otsutsuki, the progenitor of chakra!"
The mysterious man smiled.
"I know."
"However, I can tell you something—"
"Back then, Kaguya Otsutsuki was nothing more than a servant and attendant of our organization's leader."
97
Immediately, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and the others were all dumbfounded and extremely shocked!
Kaguya Otsutsuki!
She is hailed as the progenitor of chakra, the origin and beginning of all things, and is known as a goddess!
It turns out it's someone else's servant?!
How is that possible!
Orochimaru sneered, "You think you can fool me with that kind of talk that you'd use to fool a three-year-old?!"
The mysterious man shook his head.
"I'm telling the truth."
"Orochimaru, I know about your experiments, which aim to integrate the bloodlines of all the clans in the ninja world into your own. However, your ultimate goal is simply to trace the bloodlines back to their origins, merge them, and transform them into the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan."
"However, if you join our organization, our leader can assure you that you will not only obtain the bloodline power of the Otsutsuki clan's main body, but you will even have the opportunity to come into contact with the most powerful being in this universe —"
"The power of the Otsutsuki God!"
Orochimaru's eyes lit up immediately.
"The Otsutsuki—the god?!"
The mysterious man nodded and said, "That's right, even within the Ōtsutsuki clan, that's a legendary existence!"
"He constantly traversed the universe, devouring and absorbing all the energy from planet after planet, gradually becoming stronger and stronger to an unimaginable degree. He has even transcended the limitations of the physical body and matter, escaping this dimension and becoming a true god!"
"The techniques he possesses are all considered divine techniques!"
"Create the universe, destroy the world, light up the planets, annihilate spacetime—"
"It's simply unimaginable and incomprehensible."
"That is the ultimate power!"
Orochimaru couldn't help but feel his blood boiling after hearing this, and a fierce and fanatical flame burned in his pupils!
Does such a power truly exist in this world?
The mysterious man smiled and said, "You'll see it if you come with me."
"Besides, even if you don't trust me, you can leave at any time with your abilities."
Orochimaru finally revealed a slight smile.
"Okay, very good."
"Whether you are Jiraiya or not, I have indeed been swayed by your words—"
"Tsunade, let's end this battle for now. I've discovered something even more interesting—"
"However, we will meet again eventually, and there will be someone behind you—"
"Uchiha Chiba".
95
After saying this, Orochimaru left with the man who looked just like Jiraiya.
Tsunade knew that they were no match for the two of them working together, so she could only let them leave for the time being.
Uchiha Yamakaze frowned and asked, "Lady Tsunade, is that mysterious person really one of the legendary Sannin, Jiraiya?"
"But wasn't he killed by the Lord of the Ninja World many years ago?"
Tsunade shook her head: "I don't know either, but his figure and voice are exactly the same as Jiraiya's, only his personality seems to be different."
"Never mind, these aren't the most important things right now—"
"The organization that recruited Orochimaru is the real key. As that man said, it's probably far more terrifying than the Akatsuki!"
Kabuto Yakushi also said, "Indeed, if what that man said is true, then that organization is terrifying—"
"Even Kaguya Otsutsuki was once a servant of the organization's leader, and it even involves the secrets of the legendary Otsutsuki god—it's practically a myth!"
Tsunade said in a deep voice, "No matter what, let's go back and inform the Lord of the Shinobi World first."
"Yes, Lady Tsunade!"
Soon, at the Ninja World Tournament...
Tsunade revealed everything, and the high-ranking figures throughout the ninja world were all deeply shocked.
"Lord of the Ninja World, do you believe that the mysterious man was telling the truth?"
Everyone looked in Qianyu's direction.
Qianyu nodded calmly.
Everyone was immediately horrified.
"So, the leader of that organization is really even more terrifying than Kaguya Otsutsuki?!"
This time, however, Qianyu shook her head.
I don't think so.
"But didn't you just say that Kaguya Otsutsuki was indeed his servant?"
"That's true, but that doesn't mean he's stronger than Kaguya Otsutsuki."
Chiba, of course, knew exactly what the mysterious man who looked just like Jiraiya was and the organization behind him.
Guoxin Jushi.
Shell structure.
"That man who looks just like Jiraiya is named Kashin Koji. He is not the real Jiraiya, but a clone of him."
Tsunade suddenly realized something and nodded, understanding.
"The organization he mentioned is called the Shell Organization, and its leader is a man named Jigen."
"However, Cixian is merely a parasite; the true manipulator behind him is named—"
"Otsutsuki Ichishiki".
Everyone immediately understood that this person was the real mastermind, the so-called mastermind behind Kaguya Otsutsuki!
"Indeed, Otsutsuki Isshiki came to the ninja world with Otsutsuki Kaguya, with the purpose of guarding the Otsutsuki clan's sacred tree."
"This is the source of the Ōtsutsuki clan's strength."
"They would graze the Ten-Tails, monsters that exist on the planet Otsutsuki, and plant them on various planets. The Ten-Tails would then devour the natural energy of the planets and slowly grow, eventually transforming into divine trees and bearing fruit, producing divine tree fruits."
"Members of the Otsutsuki clan will devour the fruits of the Divine Tree and gain unimaginable and terrifying power."
"They always travel in pairs, one master and one servant. Once they reach a planet, they sacrifice the servant's life to feed the Ten-Tails, with the aim of making the Divine Tree grow rapidly, blossom, and bear fruit."
"Generally speaking, servants are not allowed to disobey their master's will, however, Kaguya Otsutsuki is an exception."
"In order to break free from her destiny, she ambushed Isshiki Otsutsuki, turned his body upside down and fed it to the Ten-Tails, causing the Divine Tree to quickly bloom and bear fruit. Then she devoured the fruit of the Divine Tree and gained unimaginable power."
"This is the beginning of everything."
"Later, out of fear that the Otsutsuki clan would send people to capture her, she activated the Infinite Moon and the Divine Tree World Advent, turning humans into an army of White Zetsu."
"However, Kaguya Otsutsuki did not expect that Isshiki Otsutsuki, whom she ambushed, was not truly dead."
"When he was left with only a shredded body and was on the verge of death, a traveling monk named Jigen passed by. Ōtsutsuki Isshiki seized the opportunity to take over his body, parasitized his body, and has lived on since a thousand years ago."
"This is the secret technique of the Otsutsuki clan, which allows them to inject a power called a 'Karma' into other life forms, making them vessels for their own resurrection. Such vessels are called 'vessels'."
As everyone listened to Qianyu's explanation, it was as if they were listening to a mythological story.
Tsunade said in a deep voice, "In other words, the man named Otsutsuki Isshiki created a force called the Kara organization."
"So, what is their purpose?"
Qianyu said, "It's very simple."
"The Jigen that Otsutsuki Isshiki parasitized was just an ordinary person. Although it could keep him alive, it could not unleash his full power."
"Moreover, Jigen has lived for over a thousand years thanks to the power of the Otsutsuki clan, and his body is nearing decay and collapse."
"Otsutsuki Isshiki also has another Ten-Tails in his possession."
"His goal is to find and cultivate the most suitable vessel for his resurrection, and then, once everything is ready, feed Jigen's body to the Ten-Tails, causing the Divine Tree to quickly blossom and bear fruit. He will then use this new vessel to complete the resurrection ritual, swallow the fruit of the Divine Tree, and gain power surpassing his prime!"
"The entire shell organization exists and operates solely for the will of Isshiki Otsutsuki."
Fugaku Uchiha asked, "Is it just for your own resurrection?"
"However, it is understandable. Given the pride of the Otsutsuki clan, and especially for Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was the master, to be ambushed by Otsutsuki Kaguya and survive for over a thousand years is an absolute disgrace to him."
"However, his decision to launch this attack at this time seems rather presumptuous—"
"With the Lord of the Ninja World here, his plan has no chance of succeeding."
"Even if we take a step back and assume the plan succeeds, he is still no match for the Lord of the Ninja World."
Chiyu does not deny this.
"I don't take Otsutsuki Isshiki's power seriously."
"However, the fact that he could endure for over a thousand years, yet suddenly take action at this time, must mean he has his reasons and purposes—"
Kakashi Hatake asked, "What could it be?"
Qianyu said, "The most likely possibility is—"
"The members of the Ōtsutsuki clan who came to investigate have arrived."
Everyone was shocked.
Whether it's Kaguya Otsutsuki or Isshiki Otsutsuki, the power of this race is terrifying.
The current Otsutsuki Isshiki is terrifying enough. If other Otsutsuki clan members were to descend upon the ninja world, it would truly be an upheaval!
Chiba knew that at least three members of the Ōtsutsuki clan had been dispatched to investigate the affairs of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya; their names were—
Momoshiki Otsutsuki!
Otsutsuki Kinshiki!
Urashiki Otsutsuki!
Although Chiyu doesn't think these people are powerful enough to be feared now, if the Otsutsuki clan keeps coming to cause trouble, the entire ninja world will never have peace.
What Chiba wants to do is————
A net is exhausted!
"Slaughter all four members of the Otsutsuki clan, including the one who said 'one pound of grapes'!"
Then, one's power will increase to an unimaginable level, allowing one to truly turn the tables and even attack the Otsutsuki clan's lair, Otsutsuki Planet, striking at its heart and cutting off its supply lines!
but----
Unless Otsutsuki Isshiki is stupid, he won't provoke me.
Moreover, he has not yet regained his full power.
If I were him —
On the one hand, they will try to recover their strength as quickly as possible; on the other hand, they will try to win over other Otsutsuki clan members to fight against them together!
His recruitment of "scientists" like Orochimaru was probably for this very purpose.
Within the Kara organization, there is a scientist named Sanzu Amado. However, it seems that Otsutsuki Isshiki is not satisfied and desires more intellect and power to achieve his goal as soon as possible.
Now, Chiba, utilizing the ultimate eye power of Takamagahara, can even perceive the entire ninja world.
However, the Kara organization's secret base was built in Isshiki Otsutsuki's own alternate dimension, which Chiba was unable to explore.
However, I can use other methods to monitor their movements—
Moreover, it wasn't just Isshiki Otsutsuki; Chiba could also sense the footsteps of the other three Otsutsuki clan members, who were rapidly approaching this ninja world.
The current Qianyu is the Lord of the Ninja World, the Lord of the Underworld, and the Lord of the Moon. His perception ability can be said to span the Yin and Yang realms, covering the Earth and the Moon. He is a true being who has the entire world under his sight!
He quickly devised a plan.
We're just waiting for those big logs to fall into the trap.
at the same time.
In a world of another dimension, at the underground headquarters of the Shell organization.
Orochimaru was brought in by Kashin Koji.
Here, in addition to the various high-tech products that amazed Orochimaru, he even met many old acquaintances.
Kakuzu, Sasori of the Red Sand, Kisame Hoshigaki, and even those who once studied ninjutsu with him—
Hiryuho!
Clearly, these original Akatsuki members had been recruited into this brand-new Kara organization long before he did!
Orochimaru chuckled.
"Kakuzu, Sasori, Kisame, Hiruko—"
"It's been a long time."
-
"I never imagined that after the Akatsuki was destroyed, I would have the chance to meet you old partners again—"
Hiruko sneered, "Orochimaru, you don't need to be sarcastic here."
"6
"In the end, you're nothing more than a stray dog, no different from us!"
Orochimaru's heart stirred. It seemed that Hiruko also possessed a strange and inexplicable yet incredibly powerful force. It was clear that he was not the only one whose experiments had made progress over the years.
Their paths diverged.
Orochimaru chose to merge the power of all his family's bloodlines into one.
Hiruko, on the other hand, devours and absorbs all bloodline limits.
But now it seems that their paths led to the same destination, and both gained terrifying power!
Guoxin Jushi said in a deep voice, "Alright, from now on you are all comrades of the Kara organization, no different from those in the Akatsuki. Don't kill each other, otherwise—"
"You will face the consequences of angering the chief!"
Orochimaru chuckled. "Alright, but where exactly is this 'leader' you speak of?"
The voice just fell.
Several figures strode in.
The leader was a man who appeared gentle and refined, even with a hint of compassion.
He wore a white feather robe, had a long braid on his head, an IV mark below his left eye, and a diamond-shaped mark on his chin, which was the location of the Otsutsuki clan's wedge!
Although it seemed unremarkable, Orochimaru sensed a deep sense of fear and oppression.
He immediately realized that the man in front of him was the so-called leader of the Shell organization!
Orochimaru broke out in a cold sweat.
But he still chuckled and said, "So, you're the leader of the Shell organization?"
The man sat down casually, his expression serious, and glanced at Orochimaru.
"That's right, my name is Cixian."
"Orochimaru, Kara and I need your strength right now."
Orochimaru smiled.
"Okay, but I need to know the whole truth about you."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do things in such a muddled way."
Cixian did not refuse.
"I can tell you, of course, including all of you who were originally in the Akatsuki organization."
Everyone's hearts stirred.
Cixian quickly recounted his story, but in his final plan, he added one more sentence—
"Once the fruit of the Divine Tree has matured, I will distribute it to everyone in the Shell Organization."
"Including me, including all of you, everyone will obtain that ultimate power!"
Orochimaru and the others exchanged glances, looking at each other in bewilderment.
They naturally wouldn't easily believe Cixian's words.
However, they were powerless to resist this person's will.
Orochimaru smiled and said, "I understand."
"But what exactly do you want me to do?"
Cixian pointed to the middle-aged man with white hair and glasses next to her.
"This is Amado Sanzu, also an unparalleled scientist. With the help of Orochimaru, Hiruko, Sasori of the Red Sand, and everyone else, I believe we can achieve my goal quickly."
"First of all—I need strength—"
"Endless power!"
"Amado, Orochimaru, Hiruko, you can help me gain even greater power."
"And everyone else, including former members of Akatsuki, and the powerful forces of my current organization, all have only one goal—"
"As soon as possible, I will find the most suitable Karma for me in this ninja world, the most suitable one for my reincarnation and resurrection—"
"container!!!"
