Chapter 266 Estrangement

There was one thing that Luo Yi did not expect, and that was that the White Zetsu who carried out the infiltration tactics was "Uzumaki Afei".

"Black Zetsu actually sent you to do such a sinister thing. Don't you feel ashamed?" There is no need to act in a hurry. The more important thing is to catch the White Zetsu who have already sneaked in one by one.

"Haha... There is no distinction between high and low means in war. As long as you can win, you can do anything and do it in any way you want." Ah Fei seemed to be in the mood to chat.

"So your war ethics are really unbearable to listen to." Luo Yi scratched his ears with disgust, "I'm curious, even the origin of life is different, why do you want to work so hard for Black Zetsu?"

Black Zetsu is Kaguya's will, while White Zetsu is the "fruit" of the sacred tree, representing the orthodoxy of the Otsutsuki clan. Logically, he should be incompatible with Black Zetsu, the "son of a traitor."

Ah Fei's swirling "face" was expressionless, and the hole where his right eye should be was an empty cavity. "I don't understand what you're talking about."

Did he really not understand, or was he pretending to be confused even though he knew the truth? Luo Yi didn't know.

However, White Zetsu was also a soldier created by Kaguya using the sacred tree in order to fight against the Otsutsuki clan. It would seem even more outrageous if they regarded Kaguya as a traitor.

"For the Moon Eye Project, you, like the other White Zetsu, are all stepping stones for the Black Zetsu to achieve their goals. Even if you succeed, it will return to the arms of that adult, and you will be annihilated into dust. Can you accept such an outcome?"

"War is bound to be accompanied by sacrifice. For the great ideal, countless White Zetsu, including me, are willing to sacrifice themselves for it." Ah Fei's veto was extremely firm.

It is hard to tell whether it is an innate "factory setting" or an acquired ideological education.

"Then let me ask you another way." Luo Yi raised his left hand and showed the back of his hand to others, "Do you recognize this?"

“…very neat patterns, did you draw them yourself?” After a long silence, Ah Fei asked a speechless question.

It seems that it really doesn't recognize the "wedge". Is it because this setting does not exist at the current stage?

No, I can no longer think at the same pace as the original work.

A reasonable explanation is that among the Ōtsutsuki clan who act in groups of two, probably only the one with a higher status possesses the power of the "wedge", while the one with a lower status is often used as a tool and, when necessary, becomes a sacrifice.

Even Urashiki only knew the settings regarding the existence and underlying logic of the Otsutsuki, but not the reasons behind them.

"Forget it. You don't know as much about 'their clan' as I do. Let's stop chatting here." Considering the risk of the lurkers doing something desperate, Luo Yi planned to make a quick decision.

If we can destroy this powerful White Zetsu, it will reduce a lot of burden for our side in the next three days of war.

"You are too arrogant. I am different from them." Ah Fei clapped his hands.

"Wood Style: Wooden Man Technique"

"Bam—"

A huge cloud of mist rose from under his feet, and a giant wooden Buddha statue emerged from the ground. The wooden Buddha sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, and behind him was a circular merit wheel with huge wooden hands all around it.

Such a big noise naturally attracted the attention of the ninja coalition. Sirens sounded all over the camp and all the ninjas prepared for battle.

"Wait," Hanabi stopped the Raikage who was about to order an attack on the Buddha, "Before Luo Yi left, he said that he should handle it alone."

"If a fight breaks out, the enemies lurking among us will take advantage of the chaos to stab us in the back, causing terrible casualties," he said.

"Everyone disperse and make self-protection a priority!" Ai Hongliang's loud voice could cover most of the camp.

Having a smart leader really makes things easier. Luo Yi turned around with satisfaction and said, "Then let me order the appetizers before the battle."

"Arrogant!" The wooden man's thousands of wooden hands roared towards him like a violent storm.

「Storm Release: Sky Flash」

Bluish-white lasers burst out from where countless wooden hands struck together, like extremely sharp scalpels, cutting and chopping the wooden hands into pieces.

"Thunder" overcomes "earth", while "water" can cancel each other out. If used properly, Storm Release can target Wood Release better than Fire Release.

"A crude imitation of the first generation of Hokage... huh?" After beheading the first wave of wooden hands, Luo Yi found that the opponent did not launch a second wave of attacks, "hiss..."

Instead, on the big wooden Buddha's head, the five small Buddha heads that were originally thought to be "hair accessories" opened their mouths one after another and began to visibly condense chakra of different attributes.

What kind of San attack is this?

Wind + Earth

Unlike Sand Release, it looks like a simple superposition of two attribute release techniques, but it has the advantage of huge chakra volume, and the flying sand and rocks are very similar to Gaara's "Sand Shigure Plus".

"It's really a miracle of great strength."

Although Lava Release can restrain the "copycat Sand Release" in front of you, this kind of top-down attack and blind pursuit of attribute restraint will be a thankless task.

Whether it is physical attack or ninjutsu attack, if the opponent is keen on medium and long-range attacks, then shorten the distance.

He opened the Dao-seeking Jade Shield and charged towards Ah Fei on top of the wooden Buddha's head, while spreading Yin-tun Chakra along the way.

Sure enough, after predicting the speed and angle, the wooden Buddha stretched out more than ten hands to block the way forward, and countless other wooden hands were ready to "hit the fly."

"I'll let you do what you want." Luo Yi wanted to test his ability to break through defenses, and as he was in a playful mood, he took advantage of the situation and rushed into the defensive wall formed by the wooden hands.

"Lightning Release: Heart Flow"

"Zizi..."

With electric light leaping from his hands, Luo Yi pierced through one huge wooden hand after another that were several times taller than him.

"Clap-"

Until it breaks through the ninth wooden hand and stops before the tenth.

"The ability of Lightning Release to break through Wood Release is not satisfactory, right?" Luo Yi was still summarizing his experience, and the wooden hand in front of him had already pinched back with five fingers, "It's really rude to interrupt my thinking."

"Yin Substitute Technique"

This move is an upgraded version of the "Shadow Substitute Technique" after learning the Senjutsu. The substitute that remains in place has more changeable Yintun Chakra.

"Fire Style: Stardust"

"boom--"

The tenth wooden hand was blown to pieces, and the shock wave created pits of varying sizes in the surrounding area, with traces of burnt black carbonization everywhere.

"So strong, wooden man." In the original plan, Luo Yi thought that this "stand-in bomb" could blow through the wooden Buddha's chest.

In the end, not even a few wooden hands were broken.

"There are countless tiny gaps between wood fibers, which give wooden men excellent explosion-proof properties." A Fei still likes to talk.

"I know, otherwise Madara, who is good at fire escape, wouldn't have a headache with the first generation's wood escape."

Many high-quality woods and tree species have excellent fire resistance, and there are even fire-resistant trees specifically used for forest fire prevention.

If the wooden Buddha is difficult to deal with, then change to dealing with the caster himself.

Wherever the Yin Dun Chakra went, the speed of the body was as fast as lightning. At the same time when the Chakra spread in front of Ah Fei, Luo Yi's real body also arrived.

Illusion Moon...

"Super Strength"

"boom--"

Ah Fei's small white fist smashed on the Qiu Dao Jade shield. Luo Yi, sensing that Qiu Dao Jade was under pressure, couldn't help but change his expression.

This strength is probably no less than Tsunade's!

"The Truth-Seeking Jade... is this the power you got from that traitor?" Ah Fei put a "traitor" sign on him first.

"That traitor" can only refer to the Sage of Six Paths.

"Traitor? Who is the real traitor?" Luo Yi asked with a tentative smile.

If what Hagoromo and Hamura said and did to Kaguya was a betrayal, then wasn't what Kaguya did to her fellow Otsutsuki clan a betrayal even more so?

"How come you... know too much." Ah Fei's "right eye" was still empty, but the murderous aura released from it was not false at all.

Is Luo Yi on the side of Yuyi's unfilial son? Or is he on the side of the Otsutsuki family? The former seems to only explain the origin of the truth-seeking jade, while the latter seems to explain why he knew so much but did not confess to his companions.

"So you are not a traitor to that adult, but a traitor to the people of Earth." Ah Fei felt that he had discovered the truth.

"Ah?" Luo Yi was stunned. What on earth was this Huajuan brainstorming about?

Guessed wrong? Ah Fei was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that if it could come up with such an idea, it meant that it could also make the people of the Ninja Alliance come up with similar ideas.

So it immediately covered its head and crouched down, wailing, "Ahhh, this is different from what we agreed before. You said you wanted me to help gain the trust of other countries, but you didn't say you would kill me!"
