Chapter 318 Onoki, resurrected by Edo Tensei!
"This creature gives me a disgusting feeling —"
Standing next to Kabuto, Jugo watched as Kabuto looked White Zetsu up and down and couldn't help but speak up.
"I'm wondering if these strange creatures could be used as offerings for the Impure World Reincarnation!"
"Lord Orochimaru once considered using the snakes of Ryuchi Cave as offerings for the Impure World Reincarnation, but unfortunately I don't know if Lord Orochimaru has completed that research."
When Kabuto Yakushi was preparing for the Impure World Reincarnation, he tried to use a White Zetsu as a sacrifice for the reincarnation.
After making contact with Black Zetsu, Kabuto Yakushi learned everything about Izumi Uchiha. Unfortunately, although Kabuto was a spy, he had never indiscriminately killed innocent people.
Even on the experimental table, Orochimaru was the one who did most of the work.
Kabuto Yakushi's personality dictates that he cannot place all his bets on Black Zetsu. He will consider what would happen if Izumi Uchiha killed Black Zetsu, or even wiped out the Akatsuki organization, or even if absolute justice were to prevail over the ninja world.
In the past, if he wanted to research the Impure World Reincarnation technique, he would inevitably have to kill innocent people indiscriminately.
However, the appearance of White Zetsu made Kabuto subconsciously prepare to leave himself a way out, a way to retreat if all of Black Zetsu's plans failed.
For White Zetsu, stealing the corpse of Onoki from the Two Scales wouldn't be a difficult task at all.
After all, Iwagakure could never have imagined that someone would be interested in Onoki's corpse. After the two White Zetsu carried Onoki's corpse away from Iwagakure, the entire village remained completely unaware.
"They actually managed to steal Onoki's body just like that?"
Jugo looked at the corpse of Onoki being carried by the two White Zetsu, and couldn't help but be surprised. You know, it only took the two White Zetsu a few minutes to enter Iwagakure and return.
"This creature has a great advantage in hiding, and can even remain underground for a long time."
"I think I have some idea of where Akatsuki's intelligence comes from!"
Kabuto skillfully collected tissues from Onoki of the Two Libras. He wasn't planning on making a one-off deal. As long as he collected more of Onoki's cells, Kabuto would have a bloodline limit ninja who could fight for him at any time.
"Are you leaving here and going somewhere else?"
Jugo was not surprised by Kabuto's behavior; he was also one of the test subjects in Orochimaru's base.
"Walk?"
"Why are you leaving?"
"We're the Akatsuki!"
"Think about it, the Tsuchikage who protected Iwagakure came back to life and destroyed his own village with his own hands—"
Kabuto subconsciously imitated Orochimaru by licking his lips. He had already put aside his desire to leave himself an escape route. Now he just wanted to try and see how much of Onoki's strength he could unleash with his Edo Tensei!
"this----"
Jugo's expression changed slightly upon hearing Kabuto's words.
For a fleeting moment, Jugo seemed to see Orochimaru's shadow in Kabuto Yakushi!
After Kabuto Yakushi extracted the appropriate amount of tissue and offered a White Zetsu as a sacrifice, a coffin rose from the ground. With a muffled sound of the coffin opening and closing and the dust rising, Onoki, who had been dead for half a month, opened his eyes again.
"Didn't I die?"
Feeling his body completely unable to move, Onoki looked around blankly.
He recognized that he was not in the afterlife, but was in the vicinity of Iwagakure.
"My Impure World Reincarnation technique is still not perfect. It can only restrict the movements of the impure ninja after the Impure World Reincarnation is performed."
"However, the initial version of the Impure World Reincarnation had even greater flaws. The ninjas resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation not only lacked complete consciousness, but were also not under the control of the caster."
"Orochimaru-sama's improved Impure World Reincarnation can at least restrain the impure ninja, but if the opponent is too powerful, Impure World Reincarnation will have difficulty restraining them."
Kabuto ignored Onoki's mutterings inside the coffin. He simply cut open Onoki's neck with practiced ease and implanted a special technique into it. This technique would force Onoki to obey his commands.
He could even manipulate Onoki's reanimated body himself if Onoki refused to obey his orders.
"Was the lack of chakra due to the complete depletion of chakra before death?"
At this moment, Kabuto Yakushi truly seemed to be possessed by Orochimaru. After planting the jutsu on Onoki, he even sensed Onoki's chakra. In his perception, the Onoki he had resurrected did not have enough chakra.
"According to Lord Orochimaru's vision, a truly perfect Impure World Reincarnation would possess infinite chakra, and could even resurrect a ninja at their peak."
"I think the Onoki I've resurrected now only has about 30% of his original strength?"
After subduing Onoki, Kabuto shook his head somewhat unsatisfied. He had to admit that his experience was still a bit shallower than Orochimaru's.
"However, thirty percent of his strength should be about right!"
Although Kabuto was not entirely satisfied with Onoki's strength, he still wanted to test Onoki's current fighting power.
Go!
"Let Iwagakure meet you, the Third Tsuchikage!"
As Yakushi Kabuto gave the order, Onoki, who had already understood everything, stared with eyes that seemed to want to devour Yakushi Kabuto alive. He slowly walked out of the coffin and then floated into the air.
Although Onoki, whom Kabuto resurrected this time, was not at his peak strength, Kabuto was not prepared to cherish the resurrected Onoki. He wanted to see just how strong Onoki was when he went all out!
As Onoki stared wide-eyed, his body continued to move forward towards Iwagakure.
Iwagakure was already under martial law, and the mere presence of the reanimated Onoki was enough to attract the attention of the village's vigilant ninjas.
"What is that?"
The wary ninja looked at the black dot on the horizon and subconsciously thought of Pain, the Deva Path of the Akatsuki.
"This chakra... why does it feel so familiar?"
The ninjas from the Iwagakure Sensing Team sensed the Edo Tensei Onoki in the distance and couldn't help but mutter to themselves. In their perception, the guy flying towards Iwagakure actually looked like the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki.
"No! It's an enemy attack!"
The ninjas in the sensory squad were still wondering why the chakra of the figure on the horizon looked so much like that of the Third Tsuchikage when, in the next moment, a dazzling white light burst forth!
