White Zetsu

Chapter 65 White Zetsu

As Zhiyi stepped out of the secret base and looked at the bright sunshine, he felt as if he had been transported to another world.

He has now taken a firm step on the path of "one is all".

Immediately afterward, Zhiyi went to the ninja school. He was in a hurry, and inspiration was popping out one after another.

"White Zetsu are humans from ancient times who were immersed in the Infinite Tsukuyomi. After being modified by the Ten-Tails, they were used as Kaguya's army. They have a strong ability to hide and are generally difficult to find. There is always a White Zetsu by a person's side."

"Obito".

When Shiichi arrived at the ninja academy, Yoshino Taiga was in class.

"Recently, the focus will be on practical classes, and outstanding students will have the opportunity to graduate early, just like Kakashi and Shiichi."

Taiga Yoshino announced the news.

The ninja academy is now reducing theoretical courses and significantly increasing practical training.

The whole classroom cheered and jumped for joy. They all thought that as long as they graduated early, they could be like Kakashi and Shiichi.

Yoshino Taiga sighed as he watched the students cheering in the classroom.

He did not want his students to graduate early, because graduating early at this time would greatly increase the chances of them being sent to the battlefield.

I wonder how many of these students will survive after the war ends.

Obito Uchiha stood with his hands on his hips and shouted, "I will definitely become number one and graduate early!"

Obito's words elicited a burst of laughter, easing some of Yoshino Taiga's worries.

Genma, Hayate, and Guy looked at Obito speechlessly. He was truly indomitable, declaring himself number one every time, but never actually achieving it.

However, they also got excited. Only Kakashi and Shiki graduated early in their year. If they also graduated early, wouldn't that mean they had caught up with those two monsters?

They still have some confidence in themselves.

Since taking Zhiyi's advice, they have all worked hard to train, sparring with each other after class, and their strength has improved a lot.

"Are they encouraging early graduation now? It seems the Konoha leadership isn't optimistic about the war and has already started preparing for the next wave of recruits."

Zhiyi watched this scene from outside the window, not surprised at all. In the end, facing insufficient troops was an inevitable problem.

Although sending ninja academy students to the battlefield goes against the Will of Fire, with Konoha on the verge of destruction, there's no time to worry about that.

"Obito is currently at the Ninja Academy, and White Zetsu is constantly monitoring him, so they might be in the vicinity."

Immediately afterwards, Zhiyi closed his eyes, amplified his senses, and began to perceive the surrounding environment inch by inch.

The key is to observe underground, as the White Zetsu's Mayfly Technique is very suitable for hiding underground.

To Zhiyi's disappointment, he found nothing.

"Since there are no White Zetsu monitoring from outside, they must be hiding on Obito. It's fortunate that Konoha's defenses are strong; if the White Zetsu were discovered, it would be a major incident."

"The Art of Spores".

Zhiyi muttered to himself, then turned his gaze to Obito.

A tiny flying insect flew into the classroom from outside the ninja academy window and landed precisely on Obito Uchiha's shoulder.

"Come, let me see."

Using the flying insect on Obito's shoulder, Shiichi amplified his senses on Obito.

"Found it! It was on Obito!"

White Zetsu's spore technique is difficult to detect before it matures, but Shiichi could not stop him from examining Obito repeatedly.

It was eventually exposed.

Tiny flying insects immediately approached the white Zetsu spores and then, with lightning speed, carried the spores away from Obito's body.

The white spores looked completely bewildered. "What happened?"

The sun was shining brightly, and a gentle breeze was blowing. A flying insect, carrying the lifeless spores of the white davidius, flew towards Zhiyi's secret base.

White Zetsu spores remain motionless, not daring to transform and drive away flying insects, for fear of attracting the attention of the Konoha ninjas and ruining Madara's plans.

The flying insect eventually came to a grove of trees and landed on Zhiyi's hand.

Bai Jue observed Zhi Yi curiously, wondering what this guy was up to.

In the next round, the phosphorus worms will cover the white spores.

"You bastard, what are you doing?"

After being covered by the phosphatidylcholine insect, the white spores twisted their bodies and transformed from spores into bloated structures, then immediately let out a shrill cry.

Countless insects crawled all over it, which it could have tolerated, since it wasn't afraid of insects.

When using the Mayfly Technique on the ground, one occasionally encounters surprises, but those surprises only become food for the creature.

The life tissues from the divine tree are not something ordinary insects can covet.

But Shiki Aburame's insects were actually devouring it.

Soon, the White Zetsu died under the attack of the Phosphorous Damage Bugs, filled with resentment.

Zhiyi solemnly put away the White Zetsu's corpse. "The White Zetsu is very valuable, to be precise, its value is beyond imagination."

"Although White Zetsu is a mass-produced weapon, it is excellent in every aspect because it was used by Kaguya Otsutsuki as a weapon of war to resist the Otsutsuki clan."

"If we can thoroughly study the White Zetsu, we might be able to glimpse some of the mysteries of the Divine Tree."

After arriving at the lab, Shiki extracted cells from the White Zetsu and conducted some kind of experiment with various insects.

"The experimental equipment is still too crude. We need to find a way to squeeze some money out of Danzo-sensei. Researchers at the Root don't need to use high-tech experimental equipment; something a little rougher is fine."

Zhiyi frowned and continued studying the white blood cells.

"White Zetsu cells can be understood as a degraded version of the Divine Tree cells. They possess strong vitality, although they are not as good as Hashirama cells, but they are more stable."

"If it can be successfully transplanted into insects, there will be many directions for research."

With the help of the Mind Hall, Zhiyi was constantly inspired.

White Zetsu cells differ from interstitial cells. While interstitial cells possess strong vitality, it is uncontrollable. White Zetsu cells, on the other hand, can be further developed through fusion with insects.

The fusion of parasites with white leukocytes went smoothly. Now, Zhiyi's parasites have undergone generations of selection and are no longer comparable to what they were before.

With Shiichi's massive chakra supply, the White Zetsu parasitic insects expanded wildly at an astonishing rate.

The culture vessel immediately shattered.

The white-spotted parasite continues to swell.

Zhiyi stood still and observed. Seeing this, he thought, "This won't do."

Shiki transferred his will to control the White Zetsu parasitic insect.

The expansion of the White Zetsu parasitic insects slowed down, and they began to slowly surge, eventually taking on a human shape.

"We have a semi-finished product; now it's time to refine it."

Zhiyi looked at the White Zetsu Parasite Worm, which had a hollow center and resembled armor, and said.

With the help of the Soul Computer, Shiki Aburame's White Zetsu Parasite was rapidly perfected.

In the ninja world, the attack and defense capabilities of ninjas are extremely unbalanced. Even a powerful ninja capable of moving mountains and filling seas can be threatened with death by a single kunai.

The purpose of White Zetsu sending bad insects is to enhance the ninja's defense, enabling them to withstand kunai and minor ninjutsu without injury, which is enough to pique the ninja's curiosity and make them accept it quickly.

Looking at the white armor in front of him, Zhiyi revealed a satisfied expression.

"Let's call you the Bio-Armor."
