Chapter 272: Hagoromo's Conspiracy

Whoosh!

Ishihara felt himself moving; everything around him was gray and misty, like chaos.

His speed was very fast; suddenly, he felt the fluctuation ahead strengthen, and his vision was recovering!

"What is that?!"

Suddenly, Ishihara's eyes widened, and he looked toward the side in shock.

There, an ancient palace stood in the gray misty void!

It was filled with an ancient, desolate aura.

Moreover, judging by the traces and style, it was absolutely a man-made structure!

Ishihara took a slight breath, his heart unable to settle.

"It seems someone has already explored the Underworld before me. Who could it be?"

A name flashed through his mind.

Hagoromo!

Only he could surpass me in Yin-Yang Release!

Only Hagoromo, who could easily summon the Underworld's spirits to the living world, could have possibly entered the Underworld!

Ishihara wanted to move his body into the palace, but he could not change his movement path at all; he could only pass by it.

He gazed deeply at that palace, feeling in his heart that sooner or later he would clash with the master of that palace.

"I hope you can give me some surprises!"

Only after the palace disappeared from his vision did Ishihara turn his head to look forward.

The Underworld, arrived!

Inside the palace.

Just after Ishihara entered the Underworld, a figure walked out.

It was none other than the white-haired Hagoromo!

"Someone has come here again?"

He looked at Ishihara's back and frowned slightly.

A thousand years ago, after sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo became the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails.

But he also learned intelligence that the Otsutsuki Clan was about to descend!

The Otsutsuki Clan, a group where almost everyone is at Hagoromo's level, with existences far stronger than Kaguya!

Hagoromo understood that the Otsutsuki Clan was not something the Ninja World, nor he, could oppose!

Moreover, he himself had already become an Otsutsuki!

As long as he continued to live, when the Otsutsuki descended, he would very likely be eaten by the Ten-Tails as a sacrifice!

A dead end!

But Hagoromo, having tasted the temptation of immense power and immortality, was unwilling to die like this.

So he began to search for other methods of immortality.

At that time, Hagoromo was at his absolute peak; with the Rinnegan and as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he was practically omnipotent.

He searched the entire Ninja World and finally discovered the existence of the Shinigami!
