Chapter 176

He stood beside the Two-Tails, seemingly thinking about how to draw out a bit of the Two-Tails' chakra.

Seeing this, the Two-Tails said: "If you can guarantee Yugito's safety, I can give you chakra."

"Oh?"

Uzumaki Chihiro was surprised. This guy actually cared about the life and death of its Jinchuriki?

However, he didn't intend to kill Yugito, so it was just right to do a favor.

Uzumaki Chihiro said readily: "Fine, but whenever there's a need, you must provide chakra unconditionally; of course, I won't make it too uncomfortable for you."

The Two-Tails' eyes flashed, and it nodded; it understood that it didn't have the qualifications to negotiate other conditions right now.

At least, guarantee Yugito's safety first.

Having obtained the Two-Tails' chakra, Uzumaki Chihiro arranged for someone to send it to the Technology Development Bureau for them to study.

Then he called the Ninth Division to temporarily lock Yugito in the Penance Palace.

As for whether she could gain freedom, it would still depend on Yugito's performance.

With Yakushi Nono as a precedent, Uzumaki Chihiro estimated that Yugito wouldn't be difficult either.

And Yugito was still young, plus her status as a Jinchuriki, she might not be treated well in the village.

She couldn't possibly have too much affection for the village.

Yugito was carried on a shoulder and escorted to the Penance Palace.

The Two-Tails sensed this place through chakra.

The more it sensed, the more its heart shook.

These people were different from those Hollows; they were normal human beings.

But they possessed some of the same powers as those Hollows.

That was a power different from chakra and natural energy!

Sure enough, that member of the Uzumaki Clan was the mastermind behind the Hollows!

The Land of Lightning this time, I'm afraid it really provoked someone it shouldn't have.

For the sake of selfish desires, provoking the Uzumaki Clan, who would have thought they would provoke such an enemy...

The Two-Tails felt a bit gloating in its heart.

Ever since it was handed over to Cloud Hidden Village by Hashirama Senju, the Two-Tails hadn't suffered less torture in Cloud Hidden Village.

So for the Land of Lightning's encounter, the Two-Tails was more gloating.

Land of Whirlpools, Rukongai.

A black and white pitcher plant quietly emerged from the ground.

"Huh? Is this the Land of Whirlpools? Could I have come to the wrong place?"

The white half of the body looked like a chatterbox, babbling endlessly.

Black Zetsu whispered: "Shut up, do you want us to be discovered?!"

Reminding White Zetsu, Black Zetsu carefully observed the situation in the Land of Whirlpools. There were also many doubts in his heart.

He had been to the Land of Whirlpools before, but it was completely different from the current Land of Whirlpools.

Or rather, in his view, this was simply two different countries!

If he wasn't sure he hadn't gone to the wrong place, he would also have the same doubts as White Zetsu.

This...

Is it really the Land of Whirlpools?

Black Zetsu controlled his body, relying on the Mayfly Technique to avoid the patrol's line of sight, and quietly sneaked into Rukongai.

Just after entering the street, Black Zetsu didn't have any special feelings.

He only felt that it was a bit desolate here.

And the people living here seemed a bit strange.

Dazed, their actions were more like they were arranged according to a setting, giving a mechanical feeling.

Black Zetsu had seen this situation in many White Zetsu.

This group of people...

Are they really human?

Black Zetsu's heart rose with doubt.

This Land of Whirlpools gave him an increasingly strange feeling.

And when he came before, the Land of Whirlpools only had the Uzumaki Clan.

But now there were many other people.

Well, the Land of Whirlpools had been destroyed once, so it was impossible to only keep the Uzumaki Clan.

It was just that the speed of the Land of Whirlpools' resurgence was too fast, which gave him the feeling that the Land of Whirlpools had never been defeated.

Skipping the outskirts of Rukongai, Black Zetsu walked toward the deeper parts.

The further in he went, the more complete and beautiful the buildings in Rukongai became.

And unlike those people on the outskirts, the people here truly possessed the aura of life.

Everyone's face also had various expressions.

Inside Rukongai, and the outskirts, there seemed to be a sense of class, as if they were two worlds.

Weird! Too weird!

This Land of Whirlpools gave him a very strange feeling.

It wasn't just the strangeness of the previous Land of Whirlpools, but the strangeness of the Ninja World.

Black Zetsu buried these doubts in his heart and continued to move forward.

When he arrived at the gate of Seireitei, a flash of shock passed through Black Zetsu's eyes.

Having lived for so long, this was the first time he had seen a country possessing such architecture.

He first wandered around randomly, wanting to see if he could find Nagato Uzumaki's figure.

Although the strangeness of the Land of Whirlpools made him want to explore it, the top priority now was Nagato Uzumaki.

After all, the Rinnegan was related to his future plans; having waited for a millennium, this time there couldn't be any accidents.

A while later, Black Zetsu arrived at the True Central Spirit Arts Academy.

"Is this the Land of Whirlpools' ninja academy?"

But the people of the Land of Whirlpools didn't seem to be called ninjas, but rather a profession called Soul Reaper.

He sneaked in and listened to a class for a while, quickly becoming drowsy.

Swordsmanship, Hakuda, and Shunpo were still easy to understand.

But Kidō made him confused; he couldn't understand it at all.

What was more critical was that the people here didn't use chakra?!

But a kind of energy called spiritual energy?!

How is that possible!

Besides the chakra brought by the God Tree, this world only had natural energy.

How could a third energy system appear?!

This didn't conform to his common sense!

And what was a Zanpakuto?

Hiss—

My head is so itchy, I feel like I'm about to grow a brain!

Fortunately, he wasn't without gains; at least he found Nagato Uzumaki at the True Central Spirit Arts Academy.

Black Zetsu's heart rose with doubt.

Isn't Nagato Uzumaki perfectly fine?

Hmm, the Rinnegan is also there, no problem!

Why couldn't Madara Uchiha sense the Rinnegan?

However, knowing that the Rinnegan was fine, he was relieved.

Confirming Nagato Uzumaki's safety, Black Zetsu prepared to go elsewhere to wander around.

For example, go see the current master of the Land of Whirlpools.

He was still very confident in his Mayfly Technique; this technique could isolate his aura after sneaking underground, and no sensing technique could detect his existence.

"Hmm?"
