Escape From Konoha Chapter 767

  Chapter 767 Pure Land

   On the second day of Yagura's revival, there was an announcement regarding the alliance of the Five Kages Convention a few days ago, led by the five major nations other than the Oni Country, which had officially announced to the ninja world.

   It also means that the outbreak of the Fifth Ninja World War is an unchangeable fact.

   It's just different from the previous three Ninja World Wars. The traditional five major powers attacked each other, competed for territory and resources, and launched military contests. In this war, the ninjas from the five major countries who attacked each other in the past formed an alliance army, and jointly declared war on the Akatsuki organization born in the country of rain.

  Although all countries knew that after the Five Kages Conference, the major powers made a certain decision, which was probably related to the Fifth Ninja World War, but when this fact was officially announced, the countries still fell into unspeakable panic.

  It's okay for a big country with strong comprehensive strength, but a small country with a small territory and insufficient military power will bear the brunt of the victims every time a war breaks out. If you are lucky, you can linger on your last breath, but if you are unlucky, it is common for the country to be ruined and the family to perish.

  This kind of statement is not alarmist. After the Warring States Period, the number of countries has become smaller and smaller, and there have been no emerging countries. In the era of one country and one village, the power of big countries is increasing day by day, and it is irresistible. Small countries counterattack and become big countries. In the past few decades, there is only one example, the country of ghosts. For example, some small countries with strong ninja armed forces, such as the country of Taki and the country of rain, all fell tragically on this road to a big country, and there were countless victims.

  In every war, the position of the big country becomes more stable, while the small country becomes poorer, which has almost become a tacit fact.

   And this time, although the Fifth Ninja World War has not officially started, judging from the declaration of war made by the five major powers, its scale far exceeds that of any other Ninja World War.

  The only good news is that the outbreak of this war will not be as abrupt and direct as the previous wars, allowing some preparation time to reduce the impact.

  The ninjas also deliberately avoided irrelevant personnel, and tried to ask all countries to evacuate the theater in advance.

  At this time, inside the administrative building of the military jurisdiction of the country of ghosts.

  On the desk in front of Baishi, there is a declaration of war and a war agreement signed by the five major powers.

  —Since the establishment of the One Country One Village era, the ninja world has been able to enjoy a more stable and peaceful international environment than the Warring States Period. The five major countries have contributed a lot to the achievement of peace.

  But now there is the Kingdom of Rain that connives and shelters the international criminal organization Akatsuki in order to plunder the tailed beasts of other countries, attempting to use the "Unlimited Tsukiyomi" to control all human beings, in order to achieve the evil ambition of ruling the ninja world.

  If it is not the case, it can also be regarded as an outlaw who destroys peace, and is listed with the Akatsuki organization, and a justified military attack will be given.

  Finally, I appeal to those with lofty ideals who want peace in the Ninja world to join us and the five major power alliances to strongly resist these lawless countries and organizations.

  Fight to the end for a happy and peaceful tomorrow in the ninja world.

  At the end of the declaration of war, the family crests of the great masters of the five major countries and the joint signature seals of the contemporary five shadows are also attached.

   After scanning the declaration of war jointly issued by the five major powers, Shiraishi also knows what kind of uproar the announcement of such a declaration has caused in various parts of the ninja world.

   Moreover, although the illegal countries mentioned in the declaration of war were not directly named, anyone with a discerning eye would know which country the illegal countries mentioned in the declaration refer to.

  It's really just cursing people without uttering dirty words, and stabbing the country of ghosts with a hidden knife in the words.

  Although the influence of the Kingdom of Ghosts has now surpassed that of any major country, if the five major countries adopt the form of an alliance and join forces, then the accumulated prestige will inevitably far surpass that of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

   The sensational force caused by it is also unprecedentedly powerful.

  The alliance of the five major powers, this kind of thing has never happened in the past history, and it is undoubtedly a precedent.

   Moreover, compared to the petty fights of the Fourth Ninja World War, Shiraishi knew very well that the attitude of the five major powers was very serious and resolute in this war.

   "The declaration of war is well written."

  Baishi put down the war declaration document in his hand, without any worries on his face, even in the face of the alliance of the five major powers, he could show a relaxed and comfortable attitude, and praised the content of the war declaration document without hesitation.

  Although the five great powers unite, the ghost country will indeed feel tremendous pressure, but as the leader of the general military, he cannot show timidity at any time.

  Even if you are afraid, you must show an attitude of absolute confidence, so that the people below can feel at ease.

   If the top is messed up, the bottom will be messed up too.

vice versa.

  The most important thing is that there must be close communication and connection between the top and bottom.

   "How is the domestic people's emotional comfort work arranged?"

  Shiraishi looked at Ayane who came to his office. The other party was in charge of the garrison of the Oni Land, and had a deeper direct connection with the people.

   "Most people are relatively stable emotionally, only a very small number of people express panic and worry about this, and have an indifferent attitude."

  Ayane announced the results of the investigation by the security forces.

   "Compared to domestic countries, the small countries that are allied with us are easily disturbed by external factors."

   Liuli, who also came to the office, sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, and spoke her opinion.

   "That's right. At this time, it is clear at a glance who is the enemy and who is the friend. The five major power alliances issued such a notice to stimulate our allies and change their positions. Even if they do not rely on them, they must remain neutral in this duel."

   Baishi nodded, he also saw this.

  But he has no good solution, and can only let the government start negotiations, and try to appease them.

  Before this war has no results, some allied countries can easily fish in troubled waters and become like grass on the wall.

   Except for some allied countries that have in-depth cooperation with the ghost country, they expressed their support and actively provided various resources for the ghost country.

  In their view, the country of Oni, which won the Fourth Ninja World War, defeated a powerful ally of the Four Nations Alliance.

   Moreover, they have cooperated too closely with the Kingdom of Ghosts, and they have already put on this label, and it is very difficult to take it off again.

   After receiving it, Shiraishi looked at another agreement sent along with the declaration of war.

   It indicates the location of the war zone and non-battle zone. Ninja battles can only be carried out in the specified war zone.

  If you do something to people in non-theater zones, you will be targeted by all countries.

   It can be said that reducing the damage of the war to a minimum is very different from the previous ninja wars.

  Shiraishi looked at the war zone divided on the map. Almost half of the ninja territory would be reduced to a war zone, where they could fire and fight at will.

   The Kingdom of the Wind and the Kingdom of the Earth, two major countries closest to the Kingdom of Ghosts, will contribute more than half of their territory as battlefields.

  The same is true for the Land of Fire. The population is mainly concentrated in the north and northeast, and most of the territory can be directly used as a war.

   Baishi didn't think much about it. This form of war is good for any country.

   After all, the scale is so huge. If no restrictions are imposed, the population of the ninja world may shrink greatly in this war.

  So, he signed it, which also means that the Kingdom of Ghosts will officially intervene in this war and become a third-party group.

  In addition to this, there are several other irrelevant regulations, which Shiraishi didn't care about.

  In order to deal with this war, he, like other countries, began to transfer the population on the border of the ghost country and cleared a battlefield.

  Although I don't think that the Demon Country will be directly captured by others, there is nothing wrong with being careful.

  "Yakura is now resurrected, and Kirigakure will stabilize. Next, it's time to consider the second pair of eternal kaleidoscopes. Regarding the operation, I will talk about it when I come back from the wet bone forest. Ruri, you should prepare first."

   Baishi paused, and said to Liuli.

   "Dampbone Forest?"

  Liuli and Ayane frowned, not understanding why Shiraishi was going to Shibone Forest suddenly at this moment.

   "There are some things about the Pure Land, I want to learn from the live slug."

  Baishi remembered the psychic scroll that was suspected of signing the contract. After leaving the Pure Land, he hadn't used it outside once, mainly because of this unknown thing, which made him doubtful, and he needed to find a suitable place to study it carefully.

  By using reverse psychic techniques, Shiraishi came to the Wetbone Forest.

   It is still the same as in the past, no matter how long the scenery here has passed, it has not changed in the slightest.

   And the body of the live slug is also very shocking no matter how many times you look at it.

   "Master Baishi, what can you do for me?"

  The live slug lowered its eyes, its vision was very good, and it suddenly found the white stone that was the size of a bean in its eyes.

  Generally speaking, Baishi would not come directly to find its real body for nothing. On the contrary, if he came in person, he probably had something important to explain to him.

   For this kind of thing, the live slug is not dissatisfied.

  In this long life with no end in sight, although it likes to be quiet, it doesn't dislike excitement.

   After all, staying alone in the wet bone forest all the year round, it will also produce boring emotions, so occasionally separate some avatars, go to the ninja world to quietly carry out 'expeditions', observe the various states of the world, and watch the changes and development of the world.

   Compared with its unchanging spectator life, observing human beings can bring it more fun.

  Baishi didn't hide it either. His relationship with the live slug was both a teacher and a friend.

   "That's right. I came here to ask you, what do you think of the Pure Land?"

   Baishi asked unhurriedly, and looked up at the live slug.

   "Pure Land?"

  Huolu's tone was full of doubts, and he didn't understand why Shiraishi suddenly mentioned the Pure Land.

   "That's not a nice place."

  Although he didn't know, Huo Wu answered this question dutifully and expressed his own opinion.

   "Huh? Live, have you ever been there?"

  Baishi noticed the tone of the living slug, and concluded that the Pure Land is not a beautiful place. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be impossible to have such a feeling.

   "There used to be a clone that was accidentally involved in a chaotic space-time and fell into the pure land, so I have some understanding of the situation there."

   Live slug explained.

  Is that okay too?

   Baishi was taken aback.

  "Master Shiraishi, the world in the past was not as 'stable' as it is now, especially in the hundred years before and after the spread of Chakra, countless strange creatures and phenomena were born due to Chakra. In that era, the boundaries between life and death were not very clear. I think Master Shiraishi who has come into contact with the secret of the soul should have a deep understanding of this."

  The words of the living slug caused Shiraishi to think deeply.

  Indeed, his understanding of the past is all from books, and what he understands is fundamentally different from that of a person who has experienced it personally.

   On this point, live slugs have more say.

   "Pure Land... is a mutated existence that was born in nature after the appearance of Chakra. That place is full of lifelessness. If the soul of a living person is not strong enough and accidentally falls into the Pure Land, they will be assimilated by the 'rules' there and become a part of it. Master Shiraishi asked this, probably because he has been to that place."

  Live slug said something here, affirmed something.

  With Shiraishi's soul strength, he can survive even if he leaves his body.

  Although the so-called longevity and long-sightedness cannot be achieved, the vitality of the soul, which lasts for hundreds of years, is not a problem in the eyes of the living slug.

  Ninjas like this, in ancient times, many people could do it.

   It's just that with the development of the times, ninjas pay more and more attention to killing, but they don't explore its deep meaning, and only explore the outermost things. It can be said that the techniques of ninjas using Chakra are very rough, with only their shape but no charm.

   "Before performing reincarnation ninjutsu on a dead friend, I happened to sense some fluctuations in time and space. With the help of the 'toll fee', I went over there to have a look."

   Baishi nodded, not hiding anything.

   "That's right, the pure land is the same as the different time and space created by the kingdom of ghosts to seal monsters and monsters, but the different time and space created by the witches is to suppress monsters and monsters, and has a terrifying suppression power on evil spirits. The different time and space constructed by the pure land is to house souls who have nowhere to go, and to wash away their grievances, achieving the effect of purification."

   "Why do you want to do this?"

  Baishi has a clear understanding, but there are still some parts that he doesn't understand.

  "Before the birth of chakra energy, the soul did not actually exist. The appearance of chakra endowed creatures with such characteristics. Because chakra can carry consciousness, in many classics, chakra is regarded as a certain continuation of the spirit. The birth of the pure land is also a choice made by nature. Since there is a soul, it needs a device to manage it and draw clear boundaries. After all, if the boundary between life and death becomes very blurred, it will lead to many unpredictable disasters."

   "Draw the line between life and death?"

   Shiraishi thought of something.

  "Thousands of years ago, due to the sudden interference of Chakra, the boundary between life and death was blurred, but after that, with the growth and evolution of the Pure Land, the boundary became more and more clear. The living has a world of the living, and the dead also has a world of the dead, making the integrity of the world one step closer. As for why the Pure Land needs to wash away the resentment in the soul, I think it is mostly related to Chakra...Master Shiraishi knows about the existence of tailed beasts. They have extremely powerful Chakras, but these Chakras cannot be directly and effectively used. It is because of the chakra in them, which contain strong negative energy, which can change a person's temperament drastically."

  Live slug took the tailed beast as an example, Shiraishi felt that the matter was much simpler.

  When the soul goes to the pure land, it will carry negative energy more or less, and these negative energies will cause huge damage to the pure land, and may even lead to the destruction of the pure land.

  After all, the Pure Land accommodates the dead of the whole world, and it has to continuously receive a large number of souls carrying negative energy every day. Once such negative energy accumulates, Baishi dare not imagine what kind of result it will be.

  After Chizi absorbed the soul, Baishi also eliminated the resentment in the soul before he could use the energy of the soul body to improve his own soul.

  If he absorbs a pure natural soul, Baishi thinks about it for a while, and knows what the result will be.

   From this point of view, the pressure on Pure Land is greater than him.

   It's just that he absorbs the soul power of the soul body to strengthen himself, and the pure land purifies the soul for what?

  In order to stabilize the integrity and order of the world?

  Thinking of this, Shiraishi took a deep breath, and took out a black scroll from his ninja bag.

  Open the scroll, and there is only his lonely name on it.

   "Master Shiraishi, what is this scroll..."

  The tone of the living slug became surprised. On the scroll, it sensed the breath of the pure land.

   "It was obtained from Pure Land, and it signed a contract with me."

  Live slug silently put a question mark on his head.

   "Master Shiraishi, you always find some strange things."

  The live slug was still surprised, and continued: "However, I never thought that the Pure Land would have its own consciousness and be able to communicate."

  After all, the ability to make a contract means that the Pure Land is not completely dead, but has the existence of wisdom.

  It was never aware of this kind of thing when it was in the Pure Land.

  Of course, maybe at that time, the term "consciousness" did not exist in the Pure Land, but it was born later.

   "Before this, I didn't dare to imagine that there would be consciousness in the Pure Land."

   Baishi shook his head and smiled wryly.

   It's scary.

   Baishi doesn't know how big the Pure Land World is, but since it can carry the souls of all the dead in this world, even if it is not as good as the world, it is definitely an exaggeration.

  But such a world gave birth to its own consciousness.

  This also means that Pure Land will not operate according to rigid procedures when necessary, but will flexibly adjust its own rules of conduct.

   "So, why is there something about the contract?"

   "At that time, I purified a soul just to test it out, and then the contract was sent to me."

   Shiraishi spoke to the live slug in a negotiating tone.

   "Cleanse... the soul?"

  "Chakra can be used as the carrier of consciousness. Rather than saying that the soul is stained with resentment, it is better to say that the remaining chakra in the soul is entangled with the negative energy received during life. It is not difficult for me to transform the essence of Chakra and break up the negative energy above. If I am a human body, I can directly become a perfect human body when I seal the tail beast into the body under the condition that the body can support it."

   Shiraishi said so.

   "I see. Is it because of this reason that Pure Land fell in love with Lord Shiraishi and signed a contract with you?"

  Live slug feels like it's been a long time.

   But it makes sense when you think about it carefully.

  Pure Land is responsible for purifying the souls of the dead, and Shiraishi also has a similar ability. In the eyes of Pure Land, it may be that Shiraishi is regarded as his own "kind" or "clan member".

   "It can only be the reason."

   Shiraishi did not negate.

   "So, that is to say, according to this contract, Master Shiraishi, you can summon the Pure Land?"

   live slug asked curiously.

"Well…"

   Baishi fell into hesitation, and then shook his head decisively.

   "Impossible. I don't know how big the Pure Land is, but it's impossible to summon all of the Pure Land. However, it should be possible to summon a part of the Pure Land."

   Shiraishi is not particularly sure.

  He couldn't even use psychic techniques to summon the body of a living slug, let alone a pure land equivalent to the world level.

   That is definitely not something that can be done by human beings.

   "May I try it out here, slug?"

   Shiraishi asked the living slug for his opinion.

"Can."

  Live slug thought about it, and agreed to Baishi's request.

  It is also very interested in the existence of the Pure Land.

  I also want to know whether Baishi can summon the Pure Land through psychic techniques.

  This is the first human being who signed a contract with the Pure Land.

   Let the live slug sigh again, Shiraishi is really a maverick ninja.

  Seeing that the live slug agreed, Bai Shi turned around and walked back for a distance before stopping, lest the next spiritism affect the live slug.

   "It's almost here."

  Looking at the large open space around him, Shiraishi nodded.

  Baishi first bit his finger and let it bleed. As the initial summoning medium, he quickly completed the seal, and pressed his hands against the earth covered with rich natural energy.

  The moment he pressed it, Shiraishi's face turned pale, and the chakra in his body seemed to be bitten hard by someone, and immediately bottomed out.

  The surrounding area was quiet, and nothing unusual happened.

  The live slug kept the posture of probing, looking forward curiously.

"coming…"

   Sensing something, the living slug murmured.

  Shiraishi also sensed it and looked forward.

  A pitch-black crack, like a black lightning, suddenly split the barrier of the world.

   Immediately, the crack was torn open to the limit like the **** mouth of a huge monster.

   Gusts of sinister wind blowing from the open crack made Shiraishi, who felt the sinister wind, stiffen his body.

   Opposite the crack is a vast land that is desolate and inhabited. The sky is dark and dark, filled with death, decayed and desolate.

  Looking at the huge ferocious mouth that suddenly tore open in front of it, the width of its opening might be able to swallow a tailed beast.

  After the experiment, and basically understanding the appearance of the summoned Pure Land, Shiraishi let out a sigh of relief, stood up from the ground, and began to release the psychic technique.

   As a result, the crack appeared in the void intact, forming a **** joint with the wet bone forest.

   Won't you go?

  Baishi was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

  The dragon vein spar hanging under the neck began to flow out the celestial chakra. Baishi took out a ball and transformed it into a kind of energy with vitality. It was like feeding a child and sent it to the crack.

  The crack was satisfied and began to heal.

  The time and space of this land, with the departure of the pure land space, regained its stability.
