Everything was settled.
Ye Liang absorbed the Heart Demon's energy, then spent some time processing it within his body before finally standing up.
"It's all over at last!"
He and the System shared the same joy.
After unlocking his memories, Ye Liang used Sage Chakra to repair the System.
Now both of them had their memories restored.
"Host! Since everything is resolved, shouldn't we head back?"
"Not yet. There's still one thing left to do," Ye Liang replied.
"What thing?"
"Hehe!" Ye Liang grinned, intentionally keeping it a mystery.
Several months later.
A large group of White Zetsus suffered yet another defeat in the Land of Snow, and their morale had become somewhat disheartened. Some lower-ranking White Zetsus had even begun debating among themselves.
"Kinoto, a White Zetsu, what do you think? Why does our Master insist we keep pretending to attack? Although the Land of Snow is strong, we still have over a hundred Masked Leaders. Eliminating them should be a piece of cake!"
"Nagare, a White Zetsu! How dare you speculate about the Master's intentions? If he ever finds out, you'll pay dearly for this!"
"Come on, I'm just thinking about what's best for us brothers!"
Several White Zetsus argued amongst themselves.
One Masked White Zetsu was also deep in thought.
Over the past few months, they had already lost several comrades, yet the Master continued ordering them to attack the Land of Snow. Fine, let them keep attacking!
But no harm must come to their leaders at all!
What kind of logic is that!
He felt deeply dissatisfied.
Just as he was about to persuade a few subordinates to flee with him, Ye Liang flew in from behind. Now possessing both the Tenseigan and Rinnegan, Ye Liang had already mastered the Otsutsuki Clan's levitation technique!
"I can sense you're planning to betray me!" Ye Liang coldly asked from behind the masked White Zetsu. Before the White Zetsu could even explain, Ye Liang directly punched through his head, instantly killing him.
"Mercy, Master! It was all White Zetsu Otsu's idea! Otherwise, I'd never dare speak ill of you!"
"Yeah! Yeah! It's all White Zetsu Otsu's fault! Me and White Zetsu Kinoto are both good guys!"
The previously gossiping low-ranking White Zetsus immediately knelt down.
Ye Liang simply shook his head in disdain.
He had no time for these small fish, nor did he care about their useless chatter. Raising his hand, he used Universal Pull to draw the dead masked White Zetsu toward him, then closed his eyes.
Drip drop!
Feeling the blood flowing outside his body, Ye Liang felt a wave of nausea in his chest—but he held it back.
Soon, all the blood and flesh from the slain White Zetsu stuck onto his body. With a bit of control, Ye Liang directly manipulated the entire corpse, making it stand up as if alive.
"Master! What exactly are you doing?" Seeing Ye Liang's actions, these low-ranking White Zetsus were flabbergasted. "Only the Master would think to wear a corpse like a coat!"
Ye Liang gave no reply.
Standing up, he controlled the masked White Zetsu and flew toward the distant horizon.
Before long,
They arrived at the battlefield in the Land of Snow.
Several hours ago, he'd already ordered the main White Zetsu forces to attack here. By now, most of these underlings were already dead. Looking around the battlefield, only a few Masked White Zetsus still stubbornly stood their ground!
But that wasn't important.
Ye Liang's eyes quickly locked onto Deidara and Itachi Uchiha. They were core operatives of the Land of Snow, and also ninjas from Otogakure!
They had already killed many Masked White Zetsu.
"Hmph! Those kids finally grew up," he smirked, flying after the Explosive Bird.
In the air,
Deidara wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Itachi! Another Masked White Zetsu is approaching from ahead. Shall we go and meet him?"
"Hehe, just watch yourself. Besides, that imposter hasn't shown up yet. He should have recovered his body after several periods of rest."
"So what! Even if he fully recovers, I'm not afraid of him!" Just as Deidara finished speaking, a huge Tailed Beast Ball shot straight toward his head!
A strand of his hair burned off instantly!
"Oh hell! This White Zetsu can actually use a Tailed Beast Ball!"
"That's why you must be careful!"
Deidara quickly maneuvered the Explosive Bird to fly erratically through the sky while the Masked White Zetsu on the ground continuously launched Tailed Beast Balls from its mouth, one after another, at him.
He managed to dodge them, but the civilians behind him suffered the consequences!
The Masked White Zetsu's pupils moved slightly. Seizing the moment when Deidara wasn't paying attention, he shifted his attack direction slightly.
"Look! This White Zetsu's accuracy has dropped! He must be running out of stamina!" Deidara happily exclaimed.
Itachi also nodded. "I already have a plan! When this White Zetsu attacks, it will be his weakness. Quickly throw me at him!"
"Alright!"
After their quick discussion, they immediately flew the Explosive Bird forward.
"Finally found the courage to come at me, huh?" the masked White Zetsu secretly marveled.
He opened his mouth wide and fired off a tightly compressed Tailed Beast Ball. Yet before it could hit its target, he suddenly felt a pain in his neck. His entire body was completely shattered by a sudden attack from Itachi Uchiha who had swiftly dashed in!
"Hahahaha! We did it! Itachi, you're amazing!" Deidara praised Itachi. At that moment, Ye Liang silently emerged from the shattered remains of the Masked White Zetsu's body.
With a cold smirk, he jumped onto the back of the Explosive Bird ahead!
"Damn it! The imposter got on!"
Itachi was greatly alarmed!
Before Itachi could fully react, he was struck from behind. Deidara gasped, "Freak! If you've got the guts, face me! Why attack Itachi like a coward!"
He wanted to detonate the Explosive Bird, but Ye Liang directly yanked him off the bird's back.
Ye Liang glanced down at Terumi Mei and the others below.
"Even though things have changed a bit, it won't mess with the main mission," he said as he landed on the ground, playfully messing around with Terumi Mei and the others.
Suddenly, a dark shadow zipped toward them from the distance!
"Finally here!"
Ye Liang happily abandoned Terumi Mei and the others. "Hmph! I've been waiting for you a long time, imposter!"
The distant shadow was taken aback. He looked at the surrounding scene, his expression becoming increasingly dark. "How could you let so many people die here?! What happened to your conscience? Did a dog swallow it or something!"
Ye Liang frowned but still smirked at the shadow carelessly, "They're just NPCs. Once I defeat the Otsutsuki Clan, I'll just use Rinnegan Rebirth to bring them back to life."
"NPCs?
Tch! No wonder you've never had a woman. Guess that's what you get for staying single forever."
Ye Liang frowned again.
Man, my personality really is messed up! Who in their right mind would curse someone like that!
Shaking his head, he pushed the thought away.
He glanced at the dark figure before him. Without a word, both shot into the sky, flying in perfect unison toward the Pacific Ocean.
Before long, they arrived at the center of the Pacific.
"I didn't expect you to relocate the battlefield too!" the shadow exclaimed in admiration. At that moment, he pulled back his hood—revealing a face identical to Ye Liang's own!
"Actually, you are me, and I am you."
Ye Liang shrugged his shoulders, then became serious, "Since you're already here, you might as well make yourself useful as my perfect lure." Right after he finished speaking, he directly activated a secret technique of the Otsutsuki Clan!
