Puff!
Puff!
Puff puff puff…
Ōnoki, flying in the air, heard the terrifying sounds behind him and turned his head slightly, his expression instantly changing drastically.
Behind him, a large number of ninjas who had escaped from the terrifying golden light stretching for several kilometers were exploding into piles of minced meat one after another in mid-air.
Their flesh and blood, like bursting berries, almost connected into a single mass in the air.
But he couldn't detect the person who launched the attack at all.
The only things he could feel were the howling wind in the world and the increasingly terrifying air shriek that almost pierced his eardrums.
Something… was crashing through at a terrifying speed he couldn't comprehend; those ninjas weren't killed by some jutsu, but were directly smashed into pieces alive!
Puff puff!
A figure suddenly attached itself to Ōnoki's back. Ōnoki was startled instinctively, his hand seals already complete, and his body completely hardened, but an urgent voice came from behind him:
"Don't resist, it's Tao Bai Bai. I'll take you away first!"
The peculiar ninja, half-black and half-white, explained, his voice uncharacteristically urgent. Black Zetsu was certainly not being benevolent, but because he discovered that in this era where Shinobi World talents were dwindling, to fight against the suddenly appearing Tao Bai Bai and the golden monsters,
these few remaining powerful ninjas were already irreplaceable resources.
Ōnoki originally didn't really believe what this "Zetsu" said, but the other party not only helped them expose the Akatsuki organization's attack on the Land of Earth's capital but also showed him the miserable state of Konoha.
It was hard to believe that the once most powerful Konoha Hidden Village had now become deserted, with a large number of ninjas and residents accepting the existence of the so-called Golden Law and starting this unannounced war.
Ōnoki dispelled his jutsu, and the two instantly fell from the air to the ground.
Black Zetsu saw Tao Bai Bai appear and understood that his goal had been achieved. Now he only needed to wait for Uchiha Obito to retrieve the other eye, then he could contend with these people.
Among these ninjas, in his eyes, only Ōnoki, Ay, and Qi La Bi had value.
Black Zetsu grabbed Ōnoki's body, and as they landed, a peculiar Chakra nature transformation made their bodies seem to merge with the ground.
That smoothness was definitely not something ordinary Earth Release ninjutsu could achieve. As Ōnoki's thoughts drifted, he only felt the ground shake with a rumble.
Boom!
An iron-like hand slammed into the ground.
Black Zetsu's heart trembled, and he instinctively wanted to flee.
But a terrifying aura suddenly erupted at this moment.
Scarlet Overlord Color Haki completely burst forth, centered around Bai Cangshu, who had slammed into the ground.
Black Zetsu and Ōnoki, who were directly in the path, instantly trembled in their minds, as if they were at the center of a hurricane. That domineering aura made their minds waver, and they were momentarily lost in thought.
In that instant, Bai Cangshu's left hand instantly jabbed at Black Zetsu dozens of times like a furious storm.
Black Zetsu possessed nearly top-tier escape and stealth techniques, and as a progeny personally created by Kaguya Otsutsuki, purely in terms of bloodline, although he was not as good as Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Hamura, who inherited most of the Ōtsutsuki Clan's abilities, he was still superior to the now much diluted bloodlines of the Senju and Uchiha.
Black Zetsu, skilled in Mental infiltration abilities, also recovered very quickly from the impact of the Haki of the Conqueror. However, by the time he recovered, a storm-like attack was already in front of him.
He tried to merge into Tao Bai Bai's body, but when that left hand attacked his body, it gave him a terrifying sense of oppression.
Puff puff puff!
In an instant, Black Zetsu's black and white human body turned into a puddle of mud. The merged White Zetsu instantly died, while Black Zetsu himself fell to the ground like black mud.
Bai Cangshu exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, his right foot lightly tapped, and the ground shook again. His left arm, which was in a rapid jabbing state, suddenly froze in mid-air. It only froze for an instant, and the air emitted a terrifying howl.
At this moment, Ōnoki, who had just recovered, focused his pupils and saw the tall man above him, his left fist clenched, and a trace of crimson flame emerging from between the fingers of that clenched fist.
Whoosh!
As rumored, there were no hand seals, no sensation of Chakra flow, just a clenched fist, and terrifying flames instantly erupted from his left fist.
Boom!
Like a meteor exploding at close range, Ōnoki watched as the man slammed his fist violently behind him. He could smell the pungent odor of sulfur in the air.
Bai Cangshu punched out, and the air in front of him, along with Black Zetsu falling from the sky, exploded together.
Black Zetsu's expression was terrified, and then he was engulfed by the terrifying explosion.
Rumble!
Bai Cangshu stood in a huge crater, over ten meters in diameter and more than three meters deep, looking expressionlessly at the black, muddy substance in his hand.
In his right hand, he still clutched a pair of eyeballs, complete with flesh and nerves.

[Milestone · Thousand Eyes (Rare) Progress Updated, Current: 2 / 3]
This was something Bai Cangshu had incidentally grabbed when he smashed a Hyuga Clan ninja in the Fourth-order Instantaneous state. Now, Bai Cangshu carelessly tossed it into the pit at his feet.
Bai Cangshu turned his head and looked at Ōnoki, who had appeared dozens of meters away. This experienced ninja had used the convenient Substitute Technique in that instant to narrowly evade his attack at the critical moment.
And the spatial panel did not show a notification of him killing Black Zetsu, but Bai Cangshu was certain that Black Zetsu's current condition was definitely not good.
"Tao Bai Bai, are you also part of that so-called Golden Law?"
Ōnoki floated in the air, but in reality, his aging body beneath his clothes was taut. He was a ninja who had experienced the era of Uchiha Madara in his youth, and he knew too well what these unrestricted monsters could do.
Just from that instant of attack, Ōnoki confirmed that the person in front of him was definitely not someone an ordinary Kage-level ninja could handle.
Or rather, in his opinion, for a Kage-level ninja to fight someone like Tao Bai Bai, it must be based on sufficiently clear information and gaining a tactical advantage. Under a perfect combat plan, a Kage-level ninja might be able to find a way to counter the opponent.
The experienced Ōnoki almost immediately realized that "Sealing Jutsu" might be the best way to deal with this person, just from the intelligence stating Tao Bai Bai was evaluated as a "Human-Tailed Beast."
Unfortunately, the premise of such an operation was ample preparation. Encountering such a Human-Tailed Beast in a sudden battle was a disaster for any ninja.
His grizzled temples were somewhat damp, and the immense pressure made Ōnoki's thoughts clearer than ever before.
Bai Cangshu's gaze was sharp as he looked at Ōnoki, his footsteps light as he lifted his foot and took a step forward.
Ōnoki instantly floated backward a distance, while simultaneously raising both hands to his chest, and the light of Dust Release illuminated.
Bai Cangshu's smile at the corner of his mouth became even more pronounced.
"Are you nervous, Ōnoki?"
"golden law~ Do you still have time to care about such things…"
His tone was mocking. Ōnoki was long past the age where he would be easily provoked. As he flew higher into the sky, the Dust Release in his hand never dissipated.
It wasn't until he had flown back several kilometers, and Tao Bai Bai on the ground had become a black dot, that Ōnoki's mind finally relaxed slightly.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of air Blasts rang out, and Ōnoki's mind tensed again. He only saw a brilliant white smoke cloud explode below, and a strong wind was already rushing towards him.
As his pupils trembled, he saw the blurry, distorted figure had already appeared in front of him.
What Godspeed this was!
Purple Killing Intent Ripple enveloped Bai Cangshu's fist. Because of his excessive speed, Bai Cangshu's arm appeared stretched to several meters in Ōnoki's eyes.
With a thought, the light of Dust Release had already ignited.
Puff!
Ring!
The Dust Release beam instantly pierced Bai Cangshu's shoulder, but Bai Cangshu's fist also simultaneously shattered the hardening ninjutsu on Ōnoki's body. The sounds of bones breaking and flesh tearing occurred at the same time.
Bang!
Bai Cangshu felt Ōnoki's body indent under his fist, then soften, and only then did the force carry that not-so-heavy body, sending it flying with a bang.
Four or five thin white ripples appeared consecutively in the air as Ōnoki's body was violently thrown backward from the sky at a speed almost imperceptible to the naked eye, crashing back into the crater on the ground.
Pfft!
Flesh and blood splattered everywhere, no longer recognizable as a human form.

…
Bai Cangshu's legs seemed to tremble as he stepped on the air in mid-air. With Moonwalk becoming more proficient, he could now perform such operations, similar to hovering in the air.
As long as his strength was sufficient and his control precise enough, he thought Moonwalk might eventually reach a state where he could just quickly tap a small amount, making it appear as if he was completely standing in the air.
He looked indifferently at the deceased Ōnoki in the air, waited for a moment, and a purple drop card appeared in his hand.
The previously inconspicuous superpower, "Uncertainty of Luck," was becoming increasingly valuable in Bai Cangshu's eyes, especially in a Naruto derivative world like this, where the gap between high-end and low-end combat power was extremely large, and where characters generally had high attack and low defense.
He activated Instantaneous and crashed through the crowd, completing a large number of kills and boosting his "Luck."
The only pity was that there weren't enough Reincarnators in this world.
As Bai Cangshu's thoughts drifted, he suddenly felt the air in front of him blur.
He reacted instantly, stamping his feet again.
Bang!
Bai Cangshu once again used Moonwalk, changing his position in mid-air.
Puff!
Bai Cangshu, who appeared a few meters away, looked at the torn flesh on his waist and abdomen, seemingly feeling no pain. He reached out and touched it, then turned his head to look behind him.
Uchiha Obito, dressed in a red cloud and black robe, with his mask removed and both eyes displaying the Mangekyo Sharingan, was gently descending from the sky.
At this moment, he also happened to turn his head to look at himself. There was no joy on his face from tearing Tao Bai Bai's body with one blow, only sorrow and loneliness.
