Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die.

Chapter 422: Intermission, burning flames enter the heart!
【when! 】

[You forcibly tortured out the female of the Yamata no Orochi, Ying (Sage), who was trying to beat you into a female. The other party is about to die and cannot rise again. You get a random skill from the other party: Super Yamata no Orochi Jutsu (S, Great Mastery)]

[Unlock all sub-skills: Snake Limb Hardening (A, Earth Escape·Earth Spear Enhanced Version), Serpent Commanding Technique (A), Soft Body Transformation Technique (A), Serpent Disintegration Technique (A), Shadow Snake Limb (C), Immortal Technique·Invisibility (B), Immortal Technique·Extreme Shadow (A), Immortal Technique·Spiritual Brilliance (S).]

[The proficiency of the above skills is all at 'entry level'. Under the influence of the effect of Mastering All Martial Arts, all skills are upgraded to 'proficient'. ]

[The counterattack is powerful, and the reward is a critical hit! ]

[You draw an additional random skill from the opponent: Spiritual Summoning Technique - Five-Layer Rashomon. (A, entry level.)]

[Your level of Heart Strength has increased. 】

Standing behind Ying, he slowly drew out the Ten-fist Sword that pierced through his vest from behind.

With this action, at such a close distance, Ying, who was no longer able to use the Great Snake Disintegration Technique to avoid being immune to the sealed power of the Ten Fist Sword, was completely unable to resist the power of this divine weapon.

It could only stare blankly at its body twisting and spinning, its flesh and blood being torn away bit by bit.
Standing on the ruins of this city that should have been prosperous,
Feeling the strength of life gradually slipping away, facing the impending death and silence, my heart is filled with endless fear and despair.

finally,
This fear and despair all turned into anger, igniting the sea of ​​​​heart,

It looked hideous, with its teeth trembling.
Leaving the most vicious curse for the victor who stabbed in the back——

"Uchiha Ci."

"You thought you won, no, you are just heading deeper into hell!"

"You are destined to suffer misery and torture in this life!"

"The rest of my life will be full of obstacles, nothing will be accomplished, and I will be looked down upon by everyone!"

"I'm abandoned by my friends and family, and I'm all alone and helpless. There's no way I'll ever be able to turn things around!"

"You can't protect anyone, no one can protect you!"

"You will eventually fall into the foulest mud and dance with me!"

"That day is not far away, hehe, hahahahahahahaha~, it's not far away!"

The clanging sound of critical hits bounced in my ears, mixed with the vicious curses of the frustrated Ying.

Uchiha Ci just felt it was noisy, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes.
And at this moment, stretch out your hand,

The biggest gain from this battle——

The Ouroboros transformed by Zero Tail wrapped him into a ball, airtight, as if isolating him from the entire world.
Inside, however, there is a burning heart beating vigorously!

Under the succession of Orochimaru and White Snake Sage,
This heart, in an unexpected way, completed the engulfment of Hashirama's cells, and eventually became the core of the [Sage Body], flowing with an unquenchable flame, and completed the fusion of the [Dragon Vein] power.

No matter who it is, as long as they can adapt to Uchiha Ci's cells and install them,
You can get one,
The [Sage Body] is infinitely close to the power of the Ninja God Senju Hashirama.

Feeling the surging power of this heart, Uchiha Ci's eyes became serious.

I regret the behavior of neglecting the main point and pursuing trivial matters.
"This is a road that leads directly to the Super Shadow, and even surpasses Senju Hashirama. It's a pity."

"If you cannot recognize the will within this heart, then you will not be able to touch the true power within this heart."

Shaking his head, Uchiha Ci silently reached out his hand, released his chakra, and carefully peeled off the Zero Tail's body wrapped around his heart, piecing together its approximate appearance when it was alive. An ugly snake.
I don't really want to accept it, but unfortunately,
This tailless beast, which accompanied him along the way to defeat many powerful enemies, has been dead for a while.
The Zero-Tails, Orochimaru's will, and the White Snake Sage's will, in the process of mutual fusion and collision, were eventually swallowed up one after another by Ying, who was born based on the will of the Zero-Tails.

Before the Zero-Tails' consciousness was destroyed, it did not recognize Ying, who was influenced by the will of Orochimaru and the White Snake Sage.

Maybe he felt that this grandson had been hiding for so long that he didn't even produce the most extreme dark emotions that a normal person would have, let alone the emotions that he would have during a life-and-death battle.
Therefore, it forms a flawless Ouroboros to seal this heart.

Holding a simple Dachun value of "if you don't feed me, then I won't eat it either",

Blocked Ying's power to further develop this heart.

Since it was impossible to further develop Wood Release and Sage Body in a short period of time, Ying would focus all his attention on perfecting the Yamata no Orochi technique.

Otherwise, Uchiha Ci might be facing a powerful opponent who is proficient in fairy arts, wood escape, regeneration techniques, various forbidden techniques, and possesses [combat intuition]. He can use all the above abilities freely and combine them into new ninjutsu at will. His fighting will and fighting ability are even more powerful.

Although the outcome of the fight would not be too different, and even if Ying recognized Uchiha Ci's will, both sides might not fight, but it is still.
Some regrets.

As a result of fate, the current situation has finally come into being.

This fully demonstrates that this world is just a huge makeshift team.
No matter how sophisticated the plan is, it will eventually deviate from the original trajectory for one ridiculous reason or another, and move towards a future that no one can predict and that is ridiculous.

Holding the broken body of Zero Tail, Uchiha Ci probed into the chakra and sensed it carefully for a while, as if he had confirmed something.
At last,
He raised his head and looked towards the east with a smile on his face.
East of the Kingdom of Wind, in the direction of the Kingdom of Fire, is the location of the 'Sora Ninja Village Ruins' that Shennong had left him.

Just like the tailed beasts that can be reborn, the Zero Tail, which is composed of various negative wills, will also be reborn eventually.

At the location Shennong told him, and at the time of rebirth -

"Three years?"

Uchiha Ci raised the corner of his mouth.

"Humph, stupid snake. Let's fight side by side again in three years."

“I hope I’m still alive by then!”

With this thought, Uchiha Ci fixed his eyes on the palm of his hand. Even though it had nothing to rely on and was exposed to the air, it was still beating vigorously, burning the air and making crackling sounds.

This heart belongs to you.

next moment,
He held the pulsating incandescent object in one hand,
"breathe."

He took a deep breath, raised his left hand, summoned the Kusanagi sword, gritted his teeth, and pointed the blade at his chest with a slightly distorted expression.
Just a poke!
"Pfft!"

The sword blade roughly cut through the flesh and separated the bones, opening up a wide field of vision!

The night was late and the world was quiet, and the moon in the sky finally completed the process of changing from a waning moon to a full moon.

The moonlight shines down,

Illuminating the ruins of the battlefield like a sunflower,
It's like standing on the grandest stage that's about to open.

The incomplete person takes the first step towards perfection.
The young man with gritting teeth in the moonlight, his hands trembling, endured the great pain,
finally,
Put the hottest fire in the world into your chest!
