You still couldn't hold back, you idiot!
Chapter 301 You still couldn't hold back, you idiot!
After the Akatsuki meeting ended, in an underground space somewhere in the ninja world, the dim firelight cast interplay of light and shadow on Obito's vortex mask.
At this moment, Obito sat on the stone platform with one leg dangling in the air and the other leg raised, holding a virtual reality helmet in his hand.
He had just come out of the Ninja Tournament, and the Sharingan under his mask had a gloomy look on it, clearly indicating that he was not in a good mood.
Black Zetsu silently emerged from the crevice in the rock, its yellow eyes first landing on the virtual helmet.
Then he looked at Obito, who was clearly not in a good mood.
"The meeting over there has ended. Akatsuki has decided to participate, and the chosen participants are Kakuzu, Juzo, Kisame, and Itachi."
"Among them, Kakuzu and Juzo were only there to accumulate points and rewards to obtain funds."
"Itachi and Kisame need to pay special attention to the strong opponents on the field, and then I will go and find out their real-world identities."
"As for Orochimaru and Sasori, they chose to carry out a real-world mission rather than reveal their identities and methods."
Listening to Black Zetsu's report, Obito tossed his helmet into the air and caught it steadily, with a playful air about him.
"That's quite a clever allocation. It seems that Nagato and Izumi's cooperative relationship isn't as deep as it appears."
He smiled, but it was unclear whether he was laughing at the Akatsuki, at himself, or at Izumikawa.
"The Akatsuki organization is like a school of fish that swim towards the bait."

"Knowing it's a trap, you still want to go in."
Black Zetsu did not refute, but simply said, "Because there is indeed something we lack in there."
"Intelligence, funds, new recruits, and the resources of the major ninja villages."
"Nagato needs a war that doesn't result in death to determine who is worth recruiting."
"At the same time, those rankings also reveal which ninjas from each of the major ninja villages are the most troublesome."
Black Zetsu observed Obito's expression and, finding no significant change, continued.
"Minami wanted to see what Kiyosumi River would do next, and what he was planning to do."
"They each have their own purposes, but they can't avoid that platform."
"The fact that this is unavoidable also means that Izumikawa's plan was very successful."
Obito snorted and slowly raised the helmet in his hand.
Looking at the virtual helmet through the flickering firelight of the brazier, it felt as if you were inside the flames.
The shadow of the helmet, stretched by the flickering flames, resembled a gaping maw, relentlessly devouring everything in its path.
Then, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "I went in and tried a few matches: one individual match and one three-person match."
"I used Kamui in the individual battle, but I didn't use anything in the three-person battle."
A thoughtful look flashed across Black Zetsu's yellow eyes as he waited for Obito to continue.
"The result is quite interesting." Obito withdrew his hand and placed his helmet next to the stone platform. "Using Kamui, I won quickly."
"The opponent was completely unable to track my movements, and that space allowed me to unleash my divine power."
"It seems that various abilities are used based on our understanding."
"It's not that they gained similar capabilities after reading our information."
"Instead, it directly replicates everything about ourselves."
Obito continued with amusement, "This shows that Izumi's control over this space is not absolute."
"He couldn't stop my eye technique, which means that other bloodline limits and special abilities can also be used."
"He can probably gather information on so many bloodline abilities, ninjutsu, sealing techniques, and secret techniques."
"What an enviable method!"
Obito slowly raised his head, looking at the rock wall above him, and felt a sense of emotion.
Black Zetsu remained silent for a moment; how could he not envy him?
A thousand years of planning and a thousand years of waiting, yet it is not as powerful as the opponent's planning in just a few years.
Therefore, his heart was also wavering; the stronger the other party was, the more afraid he became.
"Black Zetsu, do you know?" Obito suddenly said again, "What's most uncomfortable isn't this system platform."
"But they won't die!"
"When you get killed inside, it will just feel like someone pressed the back of your head, everything goes black, and then you'll be thrown back into the preparation area."
"Although the pain is very clear, it does not actually harm the mind or cause damage."
"It will gradually fade, making it impossible to remember. If it happens several times, even the awe of death might fade."
Obito's tone gradually turned somber: "That's the most terrifying thing."
"Those young ninjas will become increasingly insane and fearless of death."
"Because in their eyes, death has become something that can be experienced repeatedly."
Black Zetsu was silent for a few moments, then said in a low voice, "Are you worried they'll become like White Zetsu?"
Wait, White Zetsu?
Black Zetsu's heart sank as he recalled what the other party had told him.
So, what were White Zetsu created for?
If that's the case, then wouldn't everything Izumikawa said be true?
The enemy is now preparing to fight an enemy from outer space, an enemy just like the one Mother had to deal with.
"That's right, White Zetsu doesn't know what death is, and is even searching for how many ways there are to die."
Obito's voice was low as he looked at the white Zetsu on top of the black Zetsu.
"Izumikawa is cultivating a group of people who treat dying in battle as data, a group of people who have no fear in the face of battle."
"How terrifying it would be if these people came together as a force."
After saying this, he sat back down on the stone platform, placed his palm on the virtual reality helmet, and tapped his fingers lightly, making a crisp sound.
As the two remained silent, the stillness gradually eroded the underground space.
Only the crackling and popping of the wood in the brazier echoed underground.
Obito concluded, "Tell Nagato that the Akatsuki members shouldn't just focus on the rankings during the competition; they should also pay attention to those who aren't afraid to die."
"From now on, if you're going to kill someone, kill them first."
"otherwise----"
"We won't even be able to kill them all in the future."
Black Zetsu nodded slowly, the Candle Dragon Grass on his head slowly closed, and his whole body melted into the rock wall.
Obito continued to stare at the virtual helmet, as if examining a spider web that was devouring everything.
People are drawn into it, falling into its trap and becoming engrossed in it.
Completely disregarding the danger of these things, their eyes were only on the glittering prizes.
It's tempting, so incredibly tempting.
And high in the heavens, in the universe.
Inside the moon, Izumi sat cross-legged on the top floor of the glazed white factory, his eyes closed.
The second fetal movement has passed, and the connection with the giant reincarnation eye is becoming increasingly strong.
He could clearly feel that the connection was becoming stronger and stronger, and he was drawing more power from it.
He was constantly using the power of [Optimization] and the chakra of the Tenseigan to catalyze the transformation of his own Tenseigan.
He wanted to integrate the power of this eye into himself and also try to get rid of the influence of that giant Tenseigan.
Deepening connections is fine; what needs attention is the independence of power, not connection.
Through his own Tenseigan, he could vaguely sense how to control the giant Tenseigan through connection.
It's such a shame that this enormous Tenseigan was destroyed in the future.
Toneri only used it to spy on the underground ninja world, and in the future, he even thought about using its power to destroy the ninja world and rebuild the world.
For Izumikawa, this is such a waste.
Whether it's this moon or that giant Reincarnation Eye.
It could very well serve as a defensive outpost for the ninja world, or even a planet-destroying weapon.
With the existence of a giant Tenseigan, the attack of the Otsutsuki clan will not be too much of a problem.
As he pondered, he considered how to use the giant Tenseigan and how to deal with Toneri.
A communication from an anonymous source rang in his mind, prompting him to raise his hand, and a spatial rift opened.
A virtual chakra screen was pulled out, displaying the message conveyed by the nameless being in front of him.
The information above is brief: Obito participated in the Virtual Ninja Tournament.
The two battle videos started playing as Izumi Kawa tapped the screen.
"Kamui————"
"He actually used a pupil technique."
Izumi couldn't help but laugh.
"No wonder he was discovered by the Nameless One and used the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan in the Tsukuyomi space."
"It was like lighting a torch in the dark; their location couldn't be clearer."
"You'll run into big trouble if you can't hold back, Obito."
Izumi made a joke and then contacted Mumei directly, asking him to use a virtual reality headset to pinpoint Obito's location.
For Nameless, who knew the locations of all eight thousand spear marks, this was a piece of cake.
Soon, a map popped up in front of Izumi, with flashing red dots indicating the place where Obito landed.
"So you've been here, Obito."
He lightly touched the chakra screen with his finger, shrinking the ninja world map, and quickly discovered that the other party was underground in the Land of Grass.
He has only experienced his second fetal movement so far. He needs the third fetal movement to completely stabilize his Tenseigan.
Now that Obito has taken his place, the rest of the plan will be much easier.
Although he entrusted the task of dealing with Obito to Black Zetsu, the fundamental reason for doing so was that he could not find Obito's location.
Now, with his plans closing in step by step, Obito finally couldn't hold back any longer.
To deal with him, Obito needed to understand the anonymous platform and, more importantly, the specifics of the Ninja Tournament.
Once he logs in, a record will be left.
If he doesn't use his pupil technique, we might need to go through data analysis and exploration to find any trace of him.
Unfortunately, he couldn't resist and used his eye technique in the Tsukuyomi space.
This unusual data immediately caught Wuming's attention.
"Nameless, please keep an eye on his data and make sure his location is always known."
On the chakra screen, a video of the nameless figure appeared, still busy processing various data.
Without even looking up, Wuming simply replied, "Okay, I understand."
"You're such a carefree, hands-off manager! When will that fetal movement stop?"
"It will take a little more time." Izumi knelt down, leaving a small gap, indicating that it was just a little bit short.
Wuming glanced up amidst his busy schedule and immediately rolled his eyes at Quanchuan.
Who knows how much your "little bit" actually is? Oh well, whatever.
"Can this new batch of cloned Mangekyou Sharingan be put into use?"
"I need more workload to share the load and help process the data."
"It'll be soon." Izumi nodded. "I'll go in and catalyze a soul fragment and set it up in a bit."
"Oh, right, I forgot."
"I won't need Shisui's eyes for the time being."
"His Mangekyou Sharingan can be adjusted to amplify his Tsukuyomi ability."
"However, I still need to test it a few times before I can do it."
Tsukuyomi is one of the pinnacles of illusion, and Shisui's kaleidoscope is also a standard illusion kaleidoscope.
Therefore, it is not a problem to use Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan to amplify the Tsukuyomi space's capabilities.
However, to achieve the best results, he needs to optimize the process.
Izumikawa slowly stood up, and the chakra screen retracted into the spatial rift and closed at the same time.
Looking down at the factories, they are now operating in an orderly manner.
The skeletal puppets, after being given the power of the Tenseigan, became more autonomous, just like living people.
"I really have a lot to deal with," Izumi said with a slight sigh.
As another spatial rift appeared in front of him, he lifted his foot and stepped into it.
Within the Divine Might Space, twilight remained.
However, the ancient kingdom of Loulan, now within this divine space, exudes an unusual vitality.
The Uchiha clan, living in a secluded corner of the world, has been working hard to maintain their strength.
The temporary puppet control area is currently undergoing final refinement.
Inside the castle, Izumi has now arrived at a laboratory specifically used for cultivation.
Rows of culture tanks were neatly arranged in the room.
The room he was in was the same room where the Sharingan resided.
With the participation of the Uchiha clan, the cloning of these Mangekyou Sharingan eyes accelerated.
Not to mention, he has Hashirama cells, which can replenish the pupil power of these Mangekyou Sharingan.
And these new Sharingan will also exist as servers.
If the current Tsukuyomi space didn't require someone to control and create it, Mumei would have already asked Izumi to strip away his eye technique.
She, who was originally enjoying the Tsukuyomi space, has now become a working girl and has suddenly lost all interest.
When Izumikawa saw these Mangekyou Sharingan, he only glanced at them once before stepping forward to a special device.
And within it was Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan.
At this moment, these Mangekyou Sharingan are still connected to the Tsukuyomi space, continuously spreading changes in the subconscious.
Now, what Izumikawa needs to do is to further unleash its potential.
"optimization----"
With his palm pressed against the instrument, Izumi Kawa used his supernatural ability.
Countless pieces of knowledge flowed through his mind.
In particular, Orochimaru's research on the Sharingan also drew upon some of the Uchiha clan's texts and secret techniques.
In the culture jar containing the still water kaleidoscope, bubbles began to emerge continuously.
Izumikawa is activating Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan, especially amplifying his genjutsu, and connecting it to the Tsukuyomi space.
The entire Eight Thousand Spears system has been further enhanced, improving its capacity and smoothness.
