Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 182 The Second Tail is Defeat
"Wood Release: The Technique of Coming to the Tree Realm!"

With Bai Ye's low shout, the originally peaceful earth suddenly split into two halves. Countless huge vines rose from the ground and pounced towards the two-tailed cat like giant pythons.

At this time, the Two-tailed Nekomata's Tailed Beast Ball had already condensed into shape and exploded directly in the center of the canyon.

The dazzling light like the sun instantly melted the huge vines that were entangled with the cat-shaped beast. The huge shock wave directly blew away the grass, trees, and dust in the canyon and swept towards both ends of the canyon.

Faced with an explosion of this magnitude, even a strong man like Shisui could only temporarily avoid the attack.

However, after the explosion, vines emerged from the ground, submerging the struggling Two-tailed Nekomata and absorbing its chakra.

Sensing the location of the Two-tailed Nekomata, Bai Ye instantly arrived on top of the Two-tailed Nekomata's head, put his hands together to create black sticks, and then inserted them into the Two-tailed Nekomata's body one by one.

Under the intense stimulation, Erwei's originally violent eyes gradually became clear.

After seeing Bai Ye squatting above his head and the huge vines around him, a look of fear appeared on his face, and memories that had been buried for many years gradually emerged in his mind.

As a free-spirited tailed beast, it cannot forget the battle that took place decades ago.

A young ninja in red armor broke into his territory, muttering that the tailed beasts were too dangerous, and used Wood Release Ninjutsu to seal them.

That person was Konoha's first Hokage.

Although the young man in front of him was not the same person as the first Hokage who lived decades ago, he used the same Wood Release. Although his strength was not overwhelming that of his own, it was equally terrifying.

Could it be that what happened decades ago will happen again in the ninja world?
"Young man, who are you? Why do you know Wood Release?"

The two-tailed cat asked Bai Ye again, but at this moment it had no chance to get to the bottom of the matter. After consuming a large amount of chakra, it had to return to Yumu Man's body.

Bai Ye glanced at the two-tailed cat-shaped beast, chuckled, and pointed at his forehead protector.

The moment he saw the Konoha forehead protector, Nekomata understood everything. The other party turned out to be a Konoha ninja. No wonder he mastered the same Wood Release as the first Hokage.

Back then, the Konoha ninjas distributed the tailed beasts like toys, so they probably wouldn't catch me again.

However, Yukito was fooled. With such a strong man in Konoha, Kumogakure should not have attacked Konoha at all. Konoha would suffer heavy losses this time.

Cast the Four Symbols Seal to reinforce the seal on the wooden man.

Bai Ye carried the unconscious Yukito and walked to Shisui's side, chuckled and said, "The annoying kitten has been dealt with. Now no one will disturb us to reminisce about the past."

Having witnessed the whole process, Shisui felt mixed emotions. He had many questions he wanted to ask Bai Ye, but he couldn't ask them all at once, so he could only organize his thoughts first.

After a moment's silence, Shisui said, "Bai Ye, thanks to you for your rescue this time, but why are you nearby, wearing the Konoha forehead protector?"

Bai Ye said disapprovingly:
"Jiraiya hired us to fight against Kumogakure. As for why we are here, I can only say that we are destined to be together. I have also been trying to capture the Two-Tails Jinchuriki recently."

Byakuya's answer made Shisui even more confused.

Why did Lord Jiraiya hire ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village? And didn't Byakuya hate Konoha and keep saying that Konoha was hypocritical and dangerous? So why did he take the initiative to become a mercenary for Konoha Village?

Bai Ye saw what Shisui was thinking, but he didn't rush to explain, and quietly waited for the other party to ask questions. After struggling for a while, Shisui took a deep breath and asked carefully: "Bai Ye, why do you know the Wood Release of the First Hokage?"

After saying that, Shisui stared at Byakuya closely, wanting to get a specific answer.

Wood Release is one of many bloodline limits, and is no different from other bloodline limits, but the meaning of Wood Release to Konoha is completely different from other bloodline limits.

This is the bloodline limit possessed by the first generation Hokage, and only the first generation Hokage possesses this bloodline.

Now Shisui saw bloodline limits among ninjas outside the village, and Byakuya seemed to have some opinions about the Konoha Village, which made him doubt the meaning behind it.

If he was not here, but Patriarch Fugaku and Elder Setsuna were here many years ago.

Perhaps they would have used the Sharingan illusion a long time ago to get the answers they wanted.

Bai Ye showed a puzzled expression, then said nonchalantly:

"I don't know why I mastered Wood Release, but the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan have been intermarrying for hundreds of years. Maybe I have the blood of the Senju in me."

After a pause, Bai Ye continued, "But these are not important. Wood Release is not as powerful as you think. When I was dealing with the Two-Tails just now, I almost flipped over."

There's absolutely no sign that you might flip over...

Shisui secretly complained in his heart, and at the same time he became more interested in Byakuya's life experience, the Uzumaki clan's ninjutsu, the first Hokage's bloodline limit, and his cold attitude towards Konoha.

Bai Ye has too many buffs.

Knowing that he would not gain the courage to ask any more questions, Shisui simply changed the subject, looked at the unconscious Yukito, and asked Bai Ye:

"Bai Ye, what are you going to do with the Two-Tails Jinchuriki?"

"I don't know yet..." Bai Ye glanced at Shisui, then said: "But you haven't answered my question yet, are your eyes the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

Shisui pondered for a moment, as if hesitating whether to tell the truth, then nodded and said, "Yes, my eyes are the Mangekyō Sharingan, but after getting these eyes, I am not as happy as I thought."

"That's natural. The Sharingan's evolution requires extreme emotions, and such emotions often represent tragedy."

"Did you see through the Konohagakure, or did you see through the Uchiha and yourself, so you awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan?
When Bai Ye said these words, his tone was very light.

But when Shisui heard it, his expression was shocked. His inner thoughts were once again seen through by Bai Ye, who knew the secret of the evolution of the Sharingan and also understood the conflict between the family and the village.

So, will Bai Ye know about his awakened eye technique, Bie Tianshen?
While Shisui was terrified, Bai Ye did not continue to ask questions. He used the technique of instant body movement and turned Yakumo out from the rocks in the canyon.

After touching Yakumo's body, Bai Ye frowned and said, "Shisui, this man should be a member of your clan. Judging from his injuries, he will not be able to become a ninja in the future."

"Can't become a ninja anymore?" Shisui reacted quickly, and then said, "Bai Ye, do you mean he can still live?"

Bai Ye nodded, then said: "Of course, this is not a fatal injury."
