Chapter 22: A weeping mask

When they saw the light screen suddenly light up, everyone's gaze looked toward the light screen overhead.

Looking at the light screen that lit up again, Naruto was very much looking forward to the Plague Doctor appearing on the light screen again; at the very least, he could know that he was safe.

Everyone in the Ninja World also started discussing one after another when they saw the light screen light up again.

"Holy crap, so fast this time?"

"Last time, there was a gap of nearly seven days between inventorying new anomalies, this time it's only a few hours."

Just when everyone was staring tightly at the screen watching.

A white, sad-faced mask that looked very bizarre appeared on the light screen.

Immediately after, subtitles kept appearing beside the mask.

"Anomaly—The Possessing Mask."

"The Possessing Mask, its appearance is a white comedy mask, despite this, at certain times it will transform into a tragedy mask."

"After research, it has been confirmed that its material is white porcelain."

"In addition, all existing visible data recording the Possessing Mask, whether text or images, automatically reflects the appearance of its current state."

Inside the Stone Village.

At the first moment of seeing this mask appear, as well as the relevant appearance data.

Inside the Chunin Exam venue, everyone was discussing one after another.

"A mask, another mask, could it be the same as the previous Plague Doctor?"

"No, no, no, it's definitely different, the Plague Doctor is in the shape of a human, while this is completely in the shape of a mask, which is very different from a human."

"By the way, is this comedy mask not a funny thing, with no harm?"

"Buddy, is your brain broken? How could there be no harm? Look at the previous two, is there any one of them that is a good thing?"

Looking at the mask on the light screen, Naruto couldn't help but think of the previous Plague Doctor in his mind.

Could it be that the mask the Plague Doctor wore on his face was also a similar mask?

At this time, the data in the light screen updated again.

"A kind of viscous liquid with high corrosivity and degenerative properties will seep out from the eye and mouth areas of the Possessing Mask."

"Any object that comes into contact with this substance will slowly corrode over a period of time."

Seeing the introduction on the light screen, everyone was a bit confused.

Although, the function of this Possessing Mask was very bizarre.

But it seemed to have a big gap from the previous Plague Doctor and the statue Peanut.

After all, this thing just said that after wearing it, the face would be slowly corroded.

Then when I see it, I just won't wear it.

Not only will I not wear it, I'll even sit on it and break it!

It's not like it can really force me to wear it!

This is when the subtitles on the light screen changed again.

"According to research, when humans appear around the Possessing Mask or have visual contact with it, there will be a strong impulse to wear it."

"When the Possessing Mask is placed on the face of an individual, it will quickly kill the test subject's brain waves and cause brain death."

"After that, the victim's body will be controlled."

"The controlled victim's body will highly accelerate incubation, eventually becoming similar to a mummified corpse."

Looking at the many images appearing on the light screen, everyone watching gasped.

Mist Village.

Looking at the introduction on the light screen, Yuan Shi frowned slightly.

Being able to control people's thinking and possess this body.

Why is this operation so similar to the genjutsu of Uchiha Obito, who controlled the Fourth Hokage back then?

However, the ability of this mask is much more powerful and terrifying than Uchiha Obito's ability before.

Somewhere in Konoha.

Orochimaru looked at the mask on the light screen, and his heart couldn't help but become restless.

If he got this mask, wouldn't that mean he could control many people?

Thinking of those people from the Anomaly Containment Facility last time, who contained those anomalies so simply.

Then could he also contain this anomaly?

Thinking of this, Orochimaru decided that no matter what, he must get this mask.

Subsequently, another row of new data appeared again.

"It has been confirmed that the Possessing Mask knows a lot of relevant intelligence and general history, and at the same time claims to have participated in many major events."

"The Possessing Mask has high intelligence and a charismatic personality, and when talking to others, it often appears kind and flattering."

"The memory of the Possessing Mask is very high, and it has achieved a high ranking in all intelligence and aptitude tests."

Looking at the data on the light screen, almost everyone who had thoughts became deeply interested in this Possessing Mask.

Looking at the introduction on the light screen, the Third Hokage kept muttering to himself:

"Knows a lot of relevant intelligence and history, and also participated in many major events?"

Does that mean that this mask knows everything about this mysterious Foundation, and also knows everything about those mysterious anomalies?

And, maybe it also knows everything about the entire Ninja World.

Thinking of this, whether it was to obtain the intelligence of the Foundation and other ninja villages, or out of the intention to protect the secrets of his own village.

The Third Hokage already had the intention to send people to snatch this anomaly.

At the same time, new data appeared in the light screen again.

"The Possessing Mask has high manipulability and can force the visitor's psychological state to make sudden and profound changes."

"The Possessing Mask has been confirmed to be very cruel; it will verbally persuade and suggest people to commit suicide, or transform people into slaves with almost no thinking."

"The Possessing Mask has been confirmed to possess knowledge related to human thinking operation methods, and claims that if given enough time, it can change everyone's thinking."

Seeing this, almost everyone's breathing became rapid.

Manipulating people's hearts, possessing bodies to make them slaves without thinking, this is exactly the ideal held in the hearts of those who have ambition and thoughts.

Rain Village.

Nagato looked at the subtitles on the light screen, and a sharp light radiated from Nagato's eyes.

Such a good thing, if he doesn't go to snatch it, does he have to let others snatch it and then attack him?

Even if he can't get it, he absolutely will not allow others to get this thing!

Subsequently, Nagato formed hand seals with both hands.

Just when Nagato formed hand seals with both hands, Pain inside the Rain Village stood up from his stool instantly.

Somewhere in Konoha, Orochimaru's breathing accelerated constantly when he saw this scene.

Possessing bodies, controlling them to become slaves. ===== CHAPTER 24 =====
