It looked around for a while but found nothing. It tilted its head and thought for a while, then retracted into the tree and dived into the ground silently.
They didn't walk far, but stopped in the bushes more than ten kilometers away. Using their perspective to lock onto White Zetsu's departure, Naruto patted Hinata's shoulder and said, "I'm going."
"Be careful." Hinata said, "Be sure to pay attention to safety."
Naruto nodded.
In front of Hinata, the body quickly faded and disappeared.
However, it was the eye technique that originally belonged to Indra. It was refined into a chakra fruit, entered Naruto's stomach, and became his ability.
The effect is that one can freely control the reality and virtuality of all objects, including oneself, but it has no effect on life.
The conditions and restrictions of use are very similar to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's lesser known name Biguna.
In the hollow state, Naruto can pass through walls, barriers, the ground, the sky, and underground. He can go anywhere.
When it becomes blurred to a certain extent, it looks like it is invisible to outsiders.
“Land, trees, and water can move freely in these three environments and blend in perfectly without being noticed.”
"Even the Byakugan's clairvoyance can't lock onto the White Zetsu who has merged into the ground. No wonder he can be in charge of such an important mission as gathering intelligence in the Akatsuki organization."
Regardless of Bai Jue's actual combat ability, this concealment ability can be regarded as the top level in the ninja world.
Naruto was lost in thought, following closely behind White Zetsu, following the malicious intent he sensed.
He had two purposes for this trip.
Capture a large number of White Zetsu, keep them in captivity, and use them as tools for the future use of the Reincarnation Technique.
Follow this line and see if you can track down Obito.
I have already informed Sakura, Ino and Sasuke in advance. If Obito is really discovered, there will be no doubt that everyone will attack him together.
"Although Obito lost one eye, he still has the Nine Magatama Samsara Eye. Hinata's space barrier may not be able to completely curb his divine power."
"Here, we still need Sasuke's strength."
Three days have passed since Sakura was rescued.
During these three days, Naruto not only played games with Hinata, but also took time to rest and recuperate.
He was also thinking about tactics, or rather, tactics with Obito as the imaginary enemy. Naruto had been thinking about this a lot as early as when he was still in the ninja school.
Based on the existing capabilities, Naruto set up two plans.
The first plan is centered around Hinata's space barrier.
If they limit Obito's Kamui and use more people against fewer, there is no chance that Obito will survive.
Even if Obito used Izanagi, this forbidden technique that can reverse all unfavorable factors including death.
With the Expanding Truth-Seeking Ball, the ultimate secret that can annihilate everything, even Obito cannot hope to escape.
Yes, if Kaguya gives up resisting and actively cooperates, Naruto can use all her abilities.
After all, he now possesses the Bloodline Network, and is a sacred tree that has neither blossomed nor borne fruit. It is not difficult for him to control and use Kaguya's abilities.
If Hinata's space barrier fails to successfully contain Obito, then Kamui, who has the power of the Nine-magatama Rinnegan, will have to resort to the second plan.
This is a tactic implemented with Feidan's death by blood as the core.
At the beginning, try to find a way to get Obito's blood, then control Hidan who has not been released yet, and launch the Death God's Blood Skill.
On one hand, Hidan was constantly killing himself, sharing the status, and synchronously feeding back to Obito, causing strong interference and influence on him.
On one side, Naruto used Susanoo's Golden Scale, sacrificed his own power, and exchanged it for Obito's power in the same proportion, greatly weakening Obito.
With this double pressure, I believe that even if Obito had ten lives, it would not be enough to die under the siege of Hinata, Ino, and Sasuke.
It can be said that before taking action, Naruto had taken every aspect into consideration.
As for the problem of physical deficiency after using the reincarnation for a short time,
Well, since you are just playing a supporting role, there is no need to do much output, so this discomfort can be ignored.
Unaware that there was a tail following it, Bai Zetsu was like a lively and nimble little fish, swimming in the soil, diving, diving, and diving continuously.
Sometimes he would collide with extremely hard materials. Often at this time, Bai Jue would complain in his heart, then go around it and continue moving forward.
It is common for the earth's crust to shift, causing changes in underground routes.
After traveling for nearly ten hours, Naruto still hadn't arrived. He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he had been discovered?
It's not that Naruto hasn't read White Zetsu's memories. Not only that, he has read a lot of them. Unfortunately, there is no valuable information or clues.
Different from humans.
White Zetsu's body structure is very strange and peculiar.
It is understandable, after all, it is a life transformed from the sacred tree.
A large part of the memory is blank, and the memories that can be seen are all like plain water, tasteless and nutritious.
"I'm so tired." Naruto sighed and patiently continued to follow for five hours.
Naruto did not disappoint. The White Zetsu he was following met another White Zetsu.
The two sides didn't say anything, they just touched each other's hands, and then the White Zetsu, whom Naruto had been following, turned around and rushed to the ground.
The other White Zetsu dived downwards.
Naruto thought about it and decided to follow the White Zetsu who was diving downwards.
"These are... spores?"
Naruto frowned when he noticed that spores were scattered in groups of three or two wherever White Zetsu passed.
what does this mean?
White Zetsu is metabolizing?
"There is no such content in the White Zetsu memories I read. It should not be a common thing." Naruto thought to himself: "Is there any meaning that I don't know?"
After following for a distance, Naruto felt something was not right, so he turned back and immediately discovered something was wrong.
"One spore is missing!"
"Who? Who took it? Such a deep place is not accessible to ordinary creatures."
Naruto sped up and quickly looked around, and with the powerful insight of the Rinnegan, he discovered subtle clues.
Following the clues, they caught up with a White Zetsu about a kilometer away.
All White Zetsu look the same and there is no difference between them, but Naruto knows that this is the third White Zetsu he has seen today.
The reason is that this White Zetsu does not have the malicious intent of the first White Zetsu.
Moreover, this White Zetsu was holding a second White Zetsu in his hand, sprinkling spores wherever he passed.
"The protection measures are good, with so many rings." Naruto's lips curled up slightly.
He had reason to believe that ahead of the road was Obito's hiding place on Earth.
Restraining his impulse, Naruto followed patiently, being even more careful than at the beginning.
Finally, arriving at the end, Naruto quietly looked around and found that it was a room less than 30 square meters.
Bai Zetsu was kneeling on the tatami, holding spores in his hands, not knowing what he was doing.
Chapter 254: A Base Hidden Deep Underground
Naruto stuck his head out and made himself invisible, floating behind White Zetsu.
Without Bai Zetsu noticing, observe its actions from a close distance.
Bai Jue was seen holding the spores in one hand and a pen in the other, writing on a piece of white paper.
"Is this some secret? And it's deciphering?"
"It's not written in the language of this era. It's a bit like the ancient language used by Hamura's lineage on the moon."
Naruto thought.
No matter how hard he looked, he couldn't tell what the spores were. But looking at this White Zetsu, he had to stop after writing a few words, and while holding the spores tightly, he closed his eyes and sensed them.
There is only one explanation: deciphering it.
There is a way of communication between White Zetsu that only they know, and this method is very secretive and difficult for outsiders to see through.
Having not seen the big fish yet, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Naruto remained still and waited patiently.
Not long after, Bai Jue finished writing, folded the white paper with black words, opened the lid next to it, threw it in, and then closed the lid again with his backhand.
After waiting for a while and not hearing any sound of landing, Naruto realized something, maintained his Hollow state, and reached into the lid.
I was shocked to find that this was a narrow cave that went vertically downwards and had no bottom. The entrance and passage were so small that even a hand could not fit in.
Naruto followed the passage without hesitation, diving downwards, and soon caught up with the folded paper that was still falling.
"One hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters."
It fell nearly a thousand meters before the paper finally landed.
Naruto treated the rock walls, stones and walls as nothing and passed through them lightly. What came into his sight was a large number of White Zetsu moving back and forth, busy as hell.
"It's hard for you to dig out such a large space so deep underground." Naruto said inwardly.
A rough count revealed that there were at least two thousand White Zetsu present.
The eyes and facial features of every White Zetsu were dull and lifeless, and one could tell at a glance that they were brainwashed and controlled by illusion.
He was emotionless, like a robot, handling one intelligence-related task after another.
Naruto looked around, observing the layout and number of people here, but he didn't find the target he was looking for. Obito was a little disappointed, but...
"That's right. This place was definitely created by Obito. It is one of his bases on Earth. Eventually, all this information will be delivered to him for his review."
"In other words, what I have to do is to keep a close eye on this information."
Last time, in order to notify and find Sasuke, Naruto integrated his chakra and eye power into flyers, causing a short rain of paper to fall on the earth.
On the one hand, it was to ask Sasuke for help, and on the other hand, it was also to lure out Obito.
Unfortunately, in the end, they only captured White Zetsu, and he was the most superficial White Zetsu who was responsible for peripheral matters.
