Naruto: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Otsutsuki.

That secret vault that should have been sealed away with a large number of white eyes.

It's empty.

"The elders in the clan speculate that the murderer is..."

At this point, Hyuga Seiran paused slightly and subconsciously glanced at Danzo.

Inside the meeting room, everyone else's gaze also fell upon Danzo.

Danzo Shimura's expression remained unchanged; he merely raised his hand coldly, signaling him to continue.

"Although the elders in the clan deduced the murderer, I was unwilling to believe it. As it turns out, my suspicions were not wrong."

“I found this around the secret vault.”

"To be precise, it wasn't me who discovered it."

"Qing was the one who made me discover it."

It's green again.

Upon hearing this name, many people present subtly shifted their gazes.

But no one interrupted.

Everyone watched Hinata Seiran in silence, waiting for him to reveal the answer.

"After all the Byakugan disappeared, I originally intended to convey this news to the Hokage, but on the way here, I discovered this guy and the traces left by Ao."

He stepped forward and dragged the Konoha ninja, who had been unconscious and had been brought into the meeting room earlier, in front of everyone.

Apart from Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was well-prepared, almost all the other Konoha high-ranking officials showed expressions of doubt.

From the moment they entered the conference room, the unconscious Konoha ninja lay there, but due to the heavy atmosphere, no one had time to ask him any questions.

Now it seems that this person is clearly the key.

puff!

Without warning, a palm pierced the ninja's body.

"Hello.."

Tsunade blurted it out almost instinctively, then abruptly raised her hand to cover her eyes.

Clearly, no one expected that Hyuga Seiran would suddenly attack.

But just a second later, she keenly sensed that something was wrong.

The expected smell of blood was not present.

On the contrary... it has a plant-like smell?

Tsunade opened her eyes in confusion, and the scene that greeted her made her pause in surprise.

The Konoha ninja, who originally looked honest and simple and whose appearance was unfamiliar, began to undergo strange changes along the spot where Hyuga Aoran's hand had pierced his body.

The Leaf Village vest on his body seemed to fade, peeling off little by little, and his skin began to turn white rapidly.

Then, the human figure twisted and writhes, eventually transforming into a deathly pale creature with a shape resembling a human...

A white monster?

What is this?

Tsunade couldn't help but ask.

This is also the same question in the minds of most people present.

It is said to be human, but the liquid flowing from its body is not bright red blood, but a strange, milky, viscous substance.

It's called a monster, yet it has facial features that are similar to those of a human.

Hinata Seiran didn't rush to explain; he simply reached out and gently patted the white monster's head.

"Ahhh!!"

Suddenly, the lifeless, inanimate white monster cried out in alarm, "Ali! Run! Go report to Lord Ban! I'll hold off this green..."

He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

Bai Jue Awei stiffly scanned his surroundings.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Minato Namikaze, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade, Kushina Uzumaki, Shikaku Nara.

Faces that would strike fear into the hearts of all ninjas were now staring intently at it.

"..."

Bai Jue Awei's mind went completely blank for a moment.

This is... Konoha?!

How did I end up in Konoha?!

Wasn't I in that huge pit, tracking Qing with Ali?!

In a split second, countless thoughts flashed through White Zetsu Awei's mind.

Now is not the time to think about these things.

The most important thing now is... run!

If these people catch him, he's completely finished!

Amidst lightning, fire, corpses, and rocks, White Zetsu Awei suddenly activated his levitation technique.

His body sank rapidly toward the ground, and half of his body disappeared into the floor in the blink of an eye.

But how could the people in the conference room react slowly?

Gentle Fist, Snake Shadow, Hair, Body Flicker, Shadow Imitation Technique, and even the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's Adamantine Chains all enveloped him at almost the same time.

However, what made Ah Wei most want to curse was not the attacks themselves, but rather—

These guys actually held back!

They didn't want to kill him.

They wanted to capture him alive!

In the last moment before losing consciousness, Awei's gaze fell precisely on Hiruzen Sarutobi's unusually serious face.

At that moment, only one thought remained in its mind.

It’s over.

I've... made a huge mistake.

Chapter 57 A New Struggle Begins

"These are...interstitial cells?!"

Orochimaru was astonished to discover that the viscous liquid flowing from the white creature's body contained an extremely vivid life force.

He was all too familiar with that aura.

It was exactly what I had painstakingly researched before...

Intercolumnar cells.

However, unlike the primitive Hashirama cells, which are so violent that they are unbearable and can easily backfire on their host.

The white creature gave him the feeling that it was a product of neutralization.

Stable and gentle, yet without diminishing its effectiveness.

In some respects, they are even more suitable as research material than the Hashirama cells that he once implanted in Danzo.

Orochimaru retracted the thin snake he had extended and carefully examined Hyuga Seiran.

Originally, he thought that the theft of the Hyuga Byakugan was just part of Hyuga Seiran's revenge against the main family.

But now it seems...

His thinking was too one-sided.

The large-scale disappearance of blue-eyed and byakugan eyes, the white monster suspected to be related to Hashirama cells, and Uchiha Madara...

All sorts of seemingly unrelated clues now seem to have strung together into an arc.

Orochimaru pondered silently.

Ao handed this person, who was suspected to be one of Madara Uchiha's subordinates, over to Konoha...

Is he trying to use someone else to do his dirty work?

Could he use Konoha's help to eliminate the being suspected to be "Uchiha Madara"?

But if that's the case, why would he steal the white eye?

Orochimaru was a little confused.

But he was almost certain that the theft of Baiyan was related to Qing.

As for Danzo, whom the Hyuga clan had previously speculated about...
