In Naruto, you can become a god through gacha pulls.

Deidara was bombarding Yoriichi with questions, his enthusiasm growing, but Yoriichi simply smiled and gently patted Deidara's shoulder, their bodies turning transparent.

"Immortal Technique: Serpent Concealment!" The immortal technique was activated, and the two of them instantly vanished into the realm of Yin and Yang.

Yoriichi just smiled and didn't say anything. It seemed that Deidara really hadn't mastered this technique yet. He couldn't very well tell Deidara that it was an absurd thing like he had learned a technique that Deidara was going to develop in the future.

After all, systems are things that can't be explained clearly, and you can't just explain them to others casually.

As the giant puppet was compressed, gaps began to appear on its massive body, with spots of light appearing at the gaps, creating a huge suction force that drew in the surrounding air and even ninjutsu!

Byakugan's expression instantly turned to surprise. Although his figure did not appear in front of everyone, he was actually hiding inside one of the mirrors, observing the current situation. This technique that could absorb ninjutsu made him extremely flustered.

"Could it be that it still doesn't work on him?" Bai fell into deep thought, a look of shock appearing on his face. It seemed that not only had Yoriichi underestimated him, but he had also underestimated the young genius who was just a child a few years ago—Uchiha Yoriichi.

But soon, something even more shocking happened to him.

"Boom!" The giant doll trembled violently and exploded in Deidara's excited eyes!

The towering flames nearly engulfed everything! The ash and smoke from the explosion swept through the flames, engulfing the surrounding clones who were stunned, and the violent sound reverberated through the sky.

His white pupils widened instantly, and he hurriedly covered his ears, the loud noise almost shattering his eardrums!

"How is this possible!" Bai's body trembled slightly as he watched the flames rapidly engulf the countless ice-escape mirrors around him.

The next moment, he too could not escape this fate and was engulfed by the flames.

The violent explosion instantly shattered the ice crystals of the magic mirror! The surrounding environment once again transformed into endless sand dunes and swirling sandstorms.

But unlike before, in the very center of this explosion, the originally thick crater was blasted into a deep trench by the violent blast!

"Boom!" In Bai's despairing eyes, he was thrown away by the powerful blast. After tumbling several times in the air, he fell to the ground next to him, which was covered with ash from the explosion.

"Cough cough!" Bai coughed violently. He had just absorbed a large amount of toxic gas from the explosion, and his body was in a state of poisoning.

After the explosion ended, Yoriichi and Deidara's bodies transformed from transparent to normal. Unlike before, Deidara's eyes showed extreme excitement!

He was panting heavily, still unable to recover from the aftershocks of what had just happened.

"That move just now..." Deidara roared excitedly, as if he were in a heavenly bath, his body moving involuntarily.

"It's so artistic! So artistic! How did they do that?! It's impossible!"

At this moment, Deidara looked even more shocked than Haku. Yoriichi looked at Deidara speechlessly. Sure enough, this was the Deidara he knew, who was extremely fond of art.

"Kenshin! No, no, no!" Deidara hurriedly covered his mouth in his excitement, a look of astonished longing appearing in his every move.

"Kenshin... Master, could you teach me this move..." Deidara bowed and looked at Yoriichi with longing in his eyes.

"Alright." Yoriichi's slight smile ignited Deidara's inner universe, and Deidara began to dance with excitement, his words filled with gratitude and reverence for Yoriichi.

“The key is… this is your technique…” Yoriichi looked at Deidara speechlessly, Deidara’s impression of him had completely changed at this moment.

"It should... be considered a good thing." Yoriichi smiled. To gain the trust of his subordinates, he really needed to rely on his abilities!

Immediately afterwards, Yoriichi shifted his gaze to Haku, who was lying motionless on the ground. His mask was being consumed by the flames and turned to dust, revealing his fair, soft, and fragrant face.

Haku coughed incessantly, and when he saw Yoriichi's gaze sweep over him, anger and disgust immediately appeared on his face.

"Uchiha Yoriichi! I never expected I underestimated you!"

Yoriichi smiled slightly and slowly approached Haku. This child, who had awakened his bloodline limit at a young age, was considered a dangerous person by the village.

In order to protect his family from being pushed down and slaughtered, the originally innocent Bai lost his family and all his loved ones overnight.

Upon witnessing this scene, Bai unleashed his full power, killing all the villagers who wanted to kill him.

A lonely snowflake landed on the boy's shoulder as he wept and fled the village that held so many painful memories for him, until a man came to his side.

The aloof Zabuza admired Haku, kept him by his side, gave him the love he lacked, trained him to become an excellent ninja, and gave him a new home...

“Zabuza is very important to you, isn’t he?” Yoriichi slowly stepped forward, his black robe fluttering in the wind and sand.

Bai Weiwei straightened up, glaring angrily at Yoriichi's condescending gaze, and rebuked him:

"Nonsense! To me, Lord Zabuza is the most important person in the world!"

Yoriichi smiled slightly, and his gaze toward Shiro became warm and affectionate.

"I didn't have a choice before, but now I want to be a good person."

"Hmm?" Bai's eyes became somewhat puzzled.

"I'll take you to rescue Zabuza from the Konoha prison." Yoriichi's voice was magnetic, and he looked at Haku with sincere eyes, extending his right hand.

"Let me become your family too, and I will make up for my past mistakes."

Bai's body trembled slightly, her clear pupils quivered slightly, and a crystal-clear tear slowly slid down her cheek.

Chapter 29 The mysterious boy who rebelled against the village on the night

Yoriichi's face beamed with a sunny smile, and his invitation to Haku to join his team was truly a heartfelt gesture.

On one hand, Yoriichi really liked this earnest, hardworking, and exceptionally talented little boy joining the team to expand his influence and strengthen his team's power.

On the other hand, Yoriichi did indeed have the idea of ​​returning to Konoha. He wanted to kill Ryougi, and in the process, it wouldn't be impossible to rescue Zabuza.

It's only natural that expanding the ranks of the staff could make Bai loyal to him.

Upon hearing Yoriichi's words, Shiro's face blossomed with crystal-clear tears. He had been living a very tiring life these past few years. Without Zabuza as his family's support, every day had been extremely painful.

This was also the moment when he felt family affection even more deeply after several years, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.

But soon, Bai realized something was wrong. She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her delicate hands and looked at Yoriichi warily.

"But...why should I believe you!"

Bai Cai realized that Yoriichi, who was just a sworn enemy, was now helping him out of kindness.

I just wanted to kill him...

Yoriichi smiled gently. Haku did not refuse his request, but instead asked why he believed in him.

Therefore, it seems feasible to invite Bai to join the team!

"Why should I help you?" Yoriichi smiled wickedly. "I've already said it, now I want to be a good person and make up for the mistakes I made before."

"Besides, I'm now an enemy of Konoha..."

Hearing this, Bai suddenly realized something and asked in confusion:

"By the way, you're from the Uchiha clan, so why didn't you die on the night of the massacre?"

Her white pupils trembled slightly. She remembered that not long ago she had heard about the massacre of the Uchiha clan by Itachi Uchiha, and she thought that she would never be able to take revenge herself.

However, a prophet from the Land of Water later told him that Yoriichi was not dead, but was in this place in the Land of Earth. So he came here with some doubt and found Yoriichi.

"But..." Byakuya lowered his eyes slightly, he really didn't know why Yoriichi had survived.

"It's simple. Because I was strong enough, I escaped from that catastrophe, and nobody knew," Yoriichi said truthfully.

"So you can't reveal your identity, and your identity is already at odds with Konoha?" Haku stared thoughtfully at Yoriichi.

"Yes."

Bai Wei nodded slightly, his gaze towards Yoriichi still carrying a hint of wariness, but it had lessened somewhat. He slowly began to speak:

"In that case, I'll trust you this once." Bai Qingche's voice was firm. He knew that Yuan Yi was not truly willing to help him completely.

No one helps others without a reason. Even Zabuza probably did it because he admired the power I possess.

As Haku pondered, Yoriichi gently patted his shoulder. Under Haku's puzzled gaze, Yoriichi spoke softly:

"Snake Concealment - Snake Venom Technique!"

As Yoriichi's voice fell, a purple light entered Haku's body, then transformed into a green light that seeped into Haku's body.

Just as Bai was wondering what was going on, he felt the toxins in his body slowly fading away.

Yoriichi quickly smiled and immediately explained:

"I've removed the toxins from the explosion for you, so you won't feel so bad now."

Snake venom is extremely potent and can neutralize other weaker toxins. Treatment with this venom will make Bai's body immune to all poisons.

However, there is also a drawback: the snake venom will remain inside Haku's body, and if Yoriichi detonates the venom, Haku will die immediately.

Yoriichi smiled slightly. This was a flaw in Haku's body, not a flaw in him. On the contrary, this toxin allowed him to control Haku's life and death at any time, should Haku betray him...

"Thank you." Bai smiled slightly, revealing an arched smile, completely unaware of the invasion of the unusual toxin into her body.

"Let's go to Kirigakure in the Land of Water. I need to find someone." Yoriichi turned his head, called to Deidara beside him, and continued walking towards the Land of Water.

Under the sunlight, the two shadows that were originally one in front of the other on the sand have turned into three, signifying the arrival of a new member.

......

In Konoha Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi was organizing documents in the Hokage's office. Looking at the mountain of documents, Hiruzen could only smile wryly and continue organizing.

The catastrophe that struck Konoha Village the day before yesterday has plunged the villagers into a state of panic, which is not a good thing. As the Hokage, he must shoulder his responsibilities and do his best to calm the hearts of these villagers.

Because the damage this catastrophe caused to Konoha was so immense, it earned its own special name – the Night of the Betrayal.

The Nine-Tails' rampage and the night of the village's betrayal—two unprecedented catastrophes in quick succession—have led countless residents to consider relocation. Konoha, which should have been the safest place, has now become a high-risk location. All the villagers are like ants on a hot plate, desperately trying to move away.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed softly, the moonlight shining on his weathered face, making the white sideburns along the wrinkles shine.

During the Nine-Tails' rampage, the Fourth Hokage fought with all his might to seal the Nine-Tails. In this disaster, the man with the Hyuga clan's unique Byakugan almost killed him, the Kage, and even suppressed Tsunade and Jiraiya at one point.

"It's so similar, it's almost identical." It's almost like the Nine-Tails' rampage back then, with massive destruction, numerous deaths, and the manipulation behind it by a bloodline limit user who actually belongs to Konoha Village.

It's likely that the Hyuga clan will be used as a pretext again... just like the Uchiha clan, which was wiped out before.

"Is it right or wrong to exterminate a clan?" Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind was in turmoil. Although he was the Hokage, in charge of most affairs, he was also just an ordinary person, an elderly man.

While the village's self-preservation and vigilance were certainly correct, the destruction of the Uchiha clan, which was originally the foundation of the village, was a truly cruel thing. And hatred will inevitably breed new hatred. Regarding the matter of Itachi Uchiha's younger brother, if he learns the village's secret in the future, will he hate Konoha?

It's unclear how the Hyuga clan will react this time, given the precedent set by the Uchiha.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, pen in hand, was deep in thought, his temples covered in cold sweat.

"With the Uchiha setting a precedent, the Hyuga have ample reason to rebel and distance themselves from the village..."

He personally favored the Hyuga clan, believing they wouldn't rebel, but ultimately, the fate of Konoha wasn't solely determined by him.

There are those old guys behind him...

Hiruzen Sarutobi had a headache, so he temporarily put down the documents in his hands and began to gaze at the bright full moon outside the window.
