Synopsis: the Great Conspirator

　　Yes, Kato Dan died yesterday.

　　In this world, the souls of the dead cannot stay in this world.

　　'farewell. '

　　Aizen stood in the distance, looking at Dan Kato who was about to leave, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.

　　It's a pity that such a good experimental material is gone.

　　Otherwise, we are still doing a few more experiments on it.

　　"Shadow Binding Technique!"

　　During the battle, the three ninjas of the Nara clan cast shadow restraint at the same time, controlling Kato's body.

　　"Fire escape, big flame bomb!"

　　"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

　　"Huo Dun, Fire Dragon Fire Bomb!"

　　A total of ten fire escape ninjutsu smashed Kato Dan's body.

　　Under the scorching heat, Kato's six broken arms gradually melted.

　　The mask covering his face was cracked and about to shatter.

　　His spiky tail was also cut off, and his massive body began to disintegrate and shrink.

　　The ninjas who were attacking violently suddenly stopped their attacks.

　　As if seeing some incredible phenomenon, everyone was silent.

　　……

　　"This... how... how is this like..."

　　Jiraiya looked at the monster in front of him in shock.

　　The monster's eight arms melted six, the tail disappeared, and the body became smaller.

　　The monster in front of him has changed into the form of hands and feet.

　　An extremely terrifying thought was born in Jiraiya's heart!

　　"Is this... human body modification..."

　　In the eyes of Orochimaru on the side, an uncontrollable thirst for knowledge was released.

　　I didn't expect, I didn't expect that there is such a technology in this world to transform a human being into this kind of monster!

　　What is the principle of this, what kind of technique, Orochimaru, I want to know!

　　"hateful……"

　　Sarutobi Hizan clenched the wish-fulfilling stick in his hand, and his face became more and more solemn.

　　From the very beginning, when he discovered that this monster's regeneration method was similar to the reincarnation of the dirty earth, he actually had some doubts, it might be the product of some kind of forbidden technique.

　　However, when he saw that the monster's body was actually in human form, the anger in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart was about to explode.

　　The enemy they attacked violently as a monster is a human like them, and may even be a compatriot from Konoha Village...

　　There is no sin on this monster, it's just a poor victim...

　　And the real mastermind behind all the tragedies is hidden behind the scenes.

　　"Hoohohoho——"

　　Kato Dan in the flames is still roaring.

　　His body continues to disintegrate, and his strength is getting weaker and weaker.

　　But it was still roaring, roaring with all its might, as if to convey some emotion.

　　Someone heard crying, someone heard anger, someone heard sadness.

　　This is an emotion that comes from the soul, which can be experienced without the need for verbal communication.

　　Bang!

　　Suddenly, Kato broke free from the Shadow Binding Technique.

　　It used up the last strength in its body and rushed forward with all its might.

　　Breaking through a circle of blockades, he rushed to a corner where people were densely populated.

　　"How can you still move?"

　　Hiruzen Sarutobi was shocked. He didn't expect that it, who was about to die, could burst out with power beyond the previous one!

　　"Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!!"

　　Kato Duan roared, as if some kind of instinct, his body suddenly moved extremely fast, so fast, no one could stop it!

　　It remembers that face, that face that made it this way, that made it suffer so much!

　　It wants to kill that person, even if it is smashed to pieces, it must complete such a revenge!

　　He accelerated his death as a price, and approached the figure with extreme speed.

　　Its arm has been raised, and it is only a moment away from that person.

　　'Ninja's teleportation technique... coupled with the virtual ringing... to have such a speed...'

　　Aizen looked calmly at Dan Kato in front of him.

　　Unexpectedly, at the last moment, it actually used "ringing".

　　Is it because of hatred for yourself?Or an instinct awakened before death?

　　No, it doesn't matter anymore, anyway, it will be proved gradually in future experiments.

　　Thinking so, Aizen's white right hand pressed on Jinghua Shuiyue's sword hilt.

　　"I--"

　　The mask of Kato's broken face finally shattered completely at this moment, revealing a human face full of hatred, trying hard to say something.

　　However, apart from Aizen standing in front of him, no one could see his face.

　　No one knew he was Dan Kato, no one knew the source of his anger.

　　"rest in peace……"

　　The sword light in Aizen's hand swept gently.

　　As if the spring breeze was blowing, Kato's broken neck was cut silently.

　　Kato Dan's soul vanished into ashes, leaving only a pile of dust in front of Aizen.

　　"All your sins, after your death, no longer exist..."

　　Aizen retracted her sword, and her gentle face was full of sadness, as if she was praying for the enemy.

　　……

　　"It seems to be just a flashback."

　　Sarutobi Hiizhan breathed a sigh of relief, Aizen was fine, no one was killed in this accident, which was a fortune among misfortunes.

　　Sarutobi Hizan didn't realize the deep meaning of the direction that the monster rushed towards Aizen before he died.

　　None of the other people present found it.

Chapter 32 Mikoto who fell off the cliff

　　"Half an hour later, the Shangnin meeting will be held."

　　Sarutobi Hiizhan gave the order, released the psychic of the monkey demon, and hurried back to the Hokage office building.

　　Although the monster died, this incident did not end there.

　　That monster was just an experiment, and the real mastermind behind it was still hiding in the dark.

　　That person must be found out, otherwise, more and more people will be killed in the future...

　　……

　　"Fortunately, I left a sample..."

　　Orochimaru walked quickly to Aizen, squatted down, took out a glass bottle, and collected the dust that had melted after Kato died.

　　His deep eyes stared at the dust in the bottle, revealing a deep thirst for knowledge.

　　"It's just a pile of dust."

　　Aizen whispered, as if reminding Orochimaru to let the dead rest in peace.

　　"If you want to defeat the enemy, you must first understand the enemy."

　　Orochimaru's voice was hoarse and authentic, and he didn't listen to Aizen's words at all.

　　Ordinary people like Aizen, who are willing to be ordinary, can't see the possibilities contained in this pile of dust.

　　The power shown by the monster just now is far from being as simple as it looks on the surface. The high-strength chakra comparable to a tailed beast is not something that a ninja can possess.

　　If he can unlock the secret, Orochimaru believes that he will definitely be one step closer to the true meaning of ninjutsu!

　　……

　　"What is Orochimaru doing?"

　　After Tsunade dealt with the injuries of several ninjas, he walked over to Aizen, looked at Orochimaru who was collecting dust, and sighed helplessly.

　　Orochimaru's talent is the highest among the three, and Sarutobi-sensei is most optimistic about it, but recently, even though he is studying in some strange places, Tsunade is a little worried.

　　"Don't mind me, you can go to the hotel with Aizen if you want."

　　After Orochimaru filled a bottle with dust, he scraped off some of the soil on the ground, for fear of missing an important sample.

　　"Orochimaru, what nonsense are you talking about!"
