Chapter 246: World Nuclear Peace

【You have used a Special Item, Gourmet Cell: Blue】

【Performing physique check, spirit check...】

【Check passed】

【You have obtained a Special Biological Cell: Gourmet Cell】

【You have obtained the Tese: Cell Activation (Rare)】

【You have obtained the Tese: Gourmet Power Evolution (Rare and Peerless)】

【Tese: Cell Activation (Rare): Your cells possess additional activity, gaining an extra boost in absorbing surrounding energy, while simultaneously increasing metabolic rate and gaining extra toxin resistance and minor Regeneration.】

【Tese: Gourmet Power Evolution (Rare and Peerless): Your cells possess a powerful phagocytic evolution ability; each time you consume the flesh of a powerful creature, you will gain Gourmet Power evolution, with the degree of evolution related to the strength of the ingredient's cells.】

Bai Cangshu completed the strengthening of the Gourmet Cell in front of Catherine; he did not mind her knowing a part of his objective.

He then hauled Uchiha Itachi and Ping Zhonghua and walked outside, leaving Catherine to continue using Magic to heal Shisui.

The convenience of Magic was well demonstrated here; this healing power did not need to consider too many physiological or scientific matters at all, as long as it did not exceed the limit, it could heal.

"Shisui, recently every village will likely carry out war mobilization and begin to close in on the borders of the Land of Fire; that is your best opportunity to capture a Tailed Beast."

The Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan possesses considerable restraint capabilities against Tailed Beasts; top-tier Uchiha ninjas can directly control Tailed Beasts, including the Nine-Tails.

And Shisui, of course, also possesses the ability to capture a Tailed Beast.

Shisui's physical injuries were rapidly improving; if the other party's ability could act upon himself, it could naturally also act upon Itachi.

He knew that from this moment on, if he still wanted to save Itachi, he would become a beast restrained by the other party's reins.

But...

If Itachi and I die just like this, what will happen to Konoha and the Uchiha?

Will it be a direct war, or will the clansmen lower their flags and cease their drums?

There are too many questions; Shisui must verify them himself.

Under the illumination of the emerald-green Magic light, Shisui finally stood up from the ground; those shattered bones had all recovered completely at an incredible speed.

His blood and Qi were still somewhat Weak at this moment, as if he had suffered a major illness, but movement was unimpeded, and his Chakra had finally begun to be extracted and flow again.

He opened his eyes, and the scarlet Three-Tomoe caused Catherine's body to stiffen for a moment; she had previously been eight hundred meters away when she was broken by a single glance from Shisui, falling into an Illusion Technique.

Shisui saw that Itachi and that man had already disappeared; he was silent for a moment before saying,

"You are not ninjas, are you? Can you tell me your true purpose?"

Shisui stood up, his temperament becoming much colder; having experienced this lesson, his attitude toward things had also undergone a silent change.

Catherine saw those Sharingan eyes rotate slightly and once again felt a strong negative energy invading her brain.

Damn it, Tao Baibai didn't restrict this guy from attacking her?!

In fact, Bai Cangshu and Shisui had not reached any consensus other than capturing a Tailed Beast and delivering it to the Land of Rain within a 7-day time limit.

Catherine's consciousness suddenly began to grow chaotic; she seemed to see her room in the real world, warm and bright, and that guy Luan was also there, curled up on the sofa playing games.

"Catherine, what exactly does that guy Tao Baibai want to do, do you know?"

Catherine was somewhat confused, but at this moment, she did not notice anything unusual and spoke up,

"Tao Baibai probably really wants to prey on those rare and exotic beasts; he strengthened his Gourmet Cell and can probably enhance himself by preying on the Tailed Beasts of this world, or even those Summoning Beasts and Sages."

"As for the rest, I don't know either, but he will likely protect that woman..."

Shisui listened to the woman's confession and sighed; so these people were not even in the same group. He could hear a lot of fear in this woman's words.

However, he also obtained some useful information: that terrifying guy who called himself Tao Baibai probably really possessed some kind of special ability to enhance himself by preying on powerful and rare creatures.

Hearing this news, he instead felt relieved.

For one, it could explain the origin of the other party's terrifying strength that required no hand seals, and secondly, it confirmed that the other party really wanted to "eat" a Tailed Beast.

In this world, most villages actually use Tailed Beasts as trump cards to deter one another.

Those powerful Monsters possess the strength to crush most ninjas; in their full state, even some Shadow Level ninjas find it difficult to suppress them.

Many ambitious people use Tailed Beasts to achieve terrifying goals, including the Nine-Tails Incident that occurred in Konoha a few years ago.

But that Tao Baibai actually really wants to eat a Tailed Beast!

Shisui then disappeared; he had to rush back to Konoha as soon as possible to ensure that the Uchiha and Konoha would not engage in infighting, and then he had to appear before the ninjas of other villages to deter the enemy villages so that the war would not break out immediately.

His time was tight, to the point that he didn't even have time to track where Tao Baibai had taken Itachi, and he left directly using the Body Flicker Technique.

Standing in the rain and mist, Bai Cangshu shook the Uchiha Itachi in his hand; the other party's face was pale and his eyes were weak, but there was no doubt he had regained consciousness.

"How about it, Uchiha Itachi, do you think Shisui can stop the internal strife in Konoha and the outbreak of war?"

Bai Cangshu's tone carried mockery and malice, as if he held great disdain for such Uchiha who yearned for the light.

But in reality, he was not mocking Shisui; he was mocking this world...

Bai Cangshu increasingly felt that these task Derivative Worlds actually possessed their own 【Tone】; call it World Will, or call it Inhibitory Force.

Every world possesses its own built-in set of rules; if you act according to those rules, you can obtain the greatest gains; conversely, you will suffer extra "difficulties."

For example, 【Heipao Shijie】, that is a chaotic and cunning world where everyone fights for their own selfishness and interests; Bai Cangshu was like a fish in water in that world, and although he entered the task world later, he obtained the world's momentum and the support of 【Homelander】 much faster than 【Mu】 who entered first.

Whereas the 【Pirate World】 was the opposite; Bai Cangshu's own task progress was slow, and he was almost constantly encountering enemies that exceeded the specifications, and in the end, it was only with the "help" of Kori and Cindy that he gained the recognition of the Black King, Luffy, and Garp and others, successfully withdrawing.

And his task completion rate in the Pirate World was also the lowest.

The Naruto World is a world with tragedy as its tone; the Hatred in this world is like a chain that cannot be broken, stretching for thousands of years.

If the Pirate World emphasizes the steadfast part of the human heart, then the Naruto World highlights the fragile and changeable side of the human heart.

Every person who initially harbored good intentions eventually had their original intentions changed and was dyed in other colors amidst repeated losses.

In this world, ninjas are forever caught between revenge and being revenged; despite possessing extraordinary power, they are still controlled by Daimyo and Nobles, manipulated by these interest groups to constantly engage in war.

Tch.

Bai Cangshu mocks everyone equally.

His biggest goal for this mission, besides completing 【Special Trial: Ultimate Benevolence】, is naturally to obtain an S-rank or higher completion rate so that he can forge the 【Thunder Emperor Heart】.

In this kind of world, nothing creates a greater incident than the act of creating Hatred and severing Hatred.

Bai Cangshu's Transparent World can clearly see the changes in Itachi's heart rate; this powerful youth, not yet 13 years old, is thinking, is attempting to feign.

His demeanor when facing Bai Cangshu is, to a certain extent, much more rational and calm than Shisui, more like a mature ninja.

Bai Cangshu lifted Itachi's body up, then spoke into Itachi's ear:

"I know, you are thinking, you are thinking about how to stop me, and..."

"How to refute my words."

"The Capacity of the Uchiha Clan is not large, but is the Capacity of those high-ranking officials in Konoha any larger?"

"Ha, they are all birds of a feather."

"Itachi, this world is in the hands of those idiots. People like you and Shisui, who possess power, are forced to fall into endless and meaningless wars under the orders of idiots. How pathetic."

Itachi opened his eyes; he felt as if he were being seduced by a Ghost, but yet... he could not control himself from thinking: Uchiha... Konoha... do those struggles really have any meaning...

"Don't be impatient, Itachi, I will take you to see it, to see what those maggots hiding in the shadows, manipulating you into war, look like when they are in a panic. Hahahaha..."

Ping Zhonghua stood in the distance, listening to that guy's wild laughter, and felt that the other party was truly insane.

Does such a madman really just want to devour some Tailed Beast?
