Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die.

Chapter 477: Research results of the Red Sand Scorpion!
Everyone present was amazed that at this moment of despair, this girl with long brown hair, who was the leader and under the greatest pressure, could still laugh.

Under the gaze of those sparkling green eyes, the dark clouds hanging over my head seemed to be pierced for no apparent reason.
It was as if I had a glimpse of the clear blue sky.

Then,

Everyone saw——

Mei Terumi raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a confident smile, and turned her head to look at the expressionless red-haired boy standing in the corner.
"Scorpion, please explain it to me!"

Scorpion did not comment. He responded to the voice by pushing a few people aside. Then he took out a scroll from the scroll bag on his waist and slammed it heavily on the table where everyone was gathered.

Then, he bit his finger and drew a horizontal line to communicate with the spirit——

Peng!
White smoke exploded from the surface of the scroll.

A corpse with pale skin, green hair, and long-dead body fell with a thud onto the table surrounded by everyone.

Scorpion looked around at everyone present, then frowned and spoke,

"This is the body of the Third Mizukage's fallen subordinate that I dragged back from the battlefield. It is not a human, but a product that looks like Yin-Yang escape."

"You can call it White Zetsu."

"This creature has a transformation technique that is difficult to discern even with the Byakugan, and possesses a technique that allows it to blend into the ground and become one with the grass and trees on the ground, moving quickly and cutting off all auras. However, although the technique it possesses is very tricky, a single White Zetsu only has the combat power of a Genin level."

"And now, the Third Mizukage is leading an army composed of these things."

"Because the enemy launched a siege campaign against us that they were eager to end quickly, and the tactics we used before were to rely on ninjutsu and ninjutsu to stop the enemy from a distance, so that the enemy could not infiltrate us and use transformation techniques to cause greater chaos."

"but."

Scorpion raised his head again, glanced at everyone's faces, and smiled sneerly.
"You can't tell now. We may have it among us."

Man Yue frowned, staring at the corpse on the table, then looked at the people around him, but no matter how he looked at it, these people were guys he was familiar with.
After thinking for a while, he took a deep breath and asked,
"what do you want to say in the end?"

Scorpion glanced at him and said calmly,
"Just stating a fact—"

"Perhaps, the content of our discussion here, the strategy, the plan to break out, and the decision on the direction of the war, there is a possibility that both the enemy and us will know."

"So, before I tell you about the important information I have found,"

"I must remind you,"

"Although the Third Mizukage didn't come, he probably knows what we are going to do."

Scorpion turned to look at Mei Terumi, snorted and laughed, and said faintly,
"Mei Terumi, you must make the right decision in this situation where the intelligence capabilities between the enemy and us are so different!"

"call"

Mei Terumi took a deep breath and smiled slightly.
"Then it depends on you and what kind of important information you can provide."

Hearing this, Scorpion raised his hand expressionlessly and took out a hand saw from under his black robe.
then,

In front of everyone, Bai Zetsu's brain was cut open in a very brutal way!

There was no brain matter as everyone had expected, nor was there any red, white or green liquid spurting out, but rather pale chunks of meat that looked like the cross section of a sausage.

"White Zetsu undoubtedly has a physical body, but it is also obvious that it has no brain."

"So, I can only make a guess that its thoughts and consciousness when it was alive were based on the transmission of chakra." "And the chakra that made White Zetsu think was actually exchanged and transmitted along the earth veins through a special ninjutsu called Mayfly Technique."

Speaking of which,

Scorpion raised his hand again, and with a click, he removed a piece of chakra core that was flickering with light and darkness from the center of his chest, and placed it in front of everyone.
"So, in order to study the principle of the Mayfly Technique, I captured a lot of living White Zetsu, trying to obtain this technique that is faster than Uchiha Ci's supersonic flight speed."

"I failed."

He admitted his failure expressionlessly, but there was no sign of discouragement on his face. He just spoke very calmly and told about his unexpected discovery during the process of failure.
"However, during this process, my Tailed Beast Chakra Core was able to detect the frequency and direction of its chakra transmission by accident, and with my new technology, I was able to determine the direction of this chakra flow, which was so fast that traditional pupil techniques and even cell-level ninja detection technology could not capture it."

"etc."

Among the crowd, Gonbei, one of the right-hand men of Master Kirigakure, looked at Scorpion with a look of horror.
"How did you know the name of the Mayfly Technique? And what do you mean by determining the direction of the Mayfly Technique!?"

Hearing this, Scorpion narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced coldly at Quan Bingwei, and sneered,
"Does it matter?"

At this moment, Gonbei was sweating as he looked at Scorpion, his heart trembling.

"How many White Zetsu did this guy kill to know so much?"

And the next moment,
Scorpion lifted up his black robe, raised his right hand, spread out his five fingers, and suddenly aimed at "Gonbei". A dazzling beam of light suddenly shot out from between his palms!

"Pfft!"

Before everyone present could react, in the blink of an eye, a chakra beam pierced through Gonbei's chest!

The scorpion's eyes flashed fiercely, and he waved his hand up!

The beam of light directly split the upper body of Gonbei in two from the chest to the top of the head, causing him to fall to the ground.

After being struck by this blow, the facial expression and skin color of 'Gonbei' who was hacked to death on the spot suddenly changed, and finally, a corpse of a White Zetsu appeared!

At this time, everyone was shocked.

Gonbei, a high-ranking rebel, the right-hand man of Mei Terumi assigned by the Elder Master of Kirigakure and an elite jonin, has disappeared. The 'Gonbei' who appeared in this impromptu meeting is actually the White Zetsu mentioned by Sasori in disguise!

"Well, this is what I was talking about, the tricky transformation technique that White Zetsu possesses."

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Scorpion spoke calmly.

"hiss"

Yuyajo En glanced at Scorpion, who looked nonchalant, as if he had just done something insignificant instead of brazenly attacking the rebel leaders in front of everyone. He couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
But soon, he came to his senses and did not accuse him of what had just happened. Instead, he pointed at the White Zetsu who had just died on the ground and asked Scorpion,
"You detected the chakra flow between them, which means that this thing has a body?"

Scorpion raised his eyebrows, a little surprised that Miyashiro En, who was hundreds of years behind the current ninja world and seemed like a primitive man, could ask such a question, but he did not directly attack like he did to Gonbei, but explained,
"Yes, but it cannot be described as an entity. I don't know how it is done, but each White Zetsu is indeed an independent individual."

"It's just that there is a chakra source and several nodes connecting them."

Scorpion frowned slightly and said decisively,
"Although this may sound a bit abstract, this is the conclusion!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi's eyes lit up and she immediately asked solemnly,

"So,"

"Scorpion, can you find the locations of these sources and nodes?"
